Hello,
Thanks for the query,

You might be suffering from psoriasis.

It is an autoimmune disorder.

You need treatment with oral as well a topical steroids.

Psoralens are also a good choice.

A photograph would have helped me in giving a closer diagnosis.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.

you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.
