Hello doctor and thanks for your help here are some more pictures
Brief Answer:
Eczematous dermatitis. Moisturizer and topical steroid
Detailed Answer:
thank you.
They seem like eczematous patches. I suggest you to use a moisturizing cream/ lotion for your skin. In addition for the patches I suggest you to use a moderately potent topical steroid cream e.g Mometasone furoate 0.1% cream or Triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% cream, twice daily. These are prescription topical steroids and I suggest you to kindly talk to your local practitioner regarding the same.
