Hi,

It may be allergic contact dermatitis. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to avoid the contact with suspected allergens like soap,detergents,grass, wool, dust..etc. Take antihistaminics like cetirizine 10 mg daily. Also take oral steroids in tapering dose. If needed,a course of antibiotic may be considered. Apply mild steroid with antibiotic cream on the affected areas. Apply same in perianal areas which is perianal dermatitis due to loose motion. Take anti diarrhoeal treatment after consulting the physician.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
