Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to eczema. A photo would be very helpful through the diagnosis. I recommend using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
