HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be allergic condition and it may be steroid responsive so it is better to try local steroid like "Beclomethasone" and oral antihistamine like Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day, let me tell you that skin condition always demands the clinical examination, for proper diagnosis so it is better to see the dermatologist if these fails to work hope this information helps.
