General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to eczema.

I recommend you to use an antihistamine such as Levocetirizine.

I also recommend using Calamine lotion for local application.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
