Brief Answer:
Dermatitis; topical steroid cream and cetrizine tablet

Detailed Answer:
Hi. Thank you.

I have reviewed the images.
It seems like a dermatitis to me. I suggest you to use a moderately potent topical steroid cream e.g triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% cream or mometasone furoate 0.1% cream, twice daily for a few days.
In addition you may also take a tablet of cetrizine 10mg once daily for symptomatic relief from itching.

Regards
