Hi,

You need to check if there are associated papule, redness or any sort of dryness there.

Prolonged itching may be either allergic or fungal infection in nature. This can even be the auto immune skin condition too.

I will suggest you to visit a dermatologist as soon as possible get it properly evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muzaffer Hussain Parray,
