Hello,
As per your case history, you are having peri-orbital dermatitis. My treatment advice is -
1. Don't scratch the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply an emollient cream like Enmoist cream twice daily.
3. Take an anti-histamine medication like levocetirizine twice daily.
If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
