Hi,
Thanks for being at Health Care Magic
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it looks like dermatitis.
If I were your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like Cortisone cream on the affected area twice daily for 3-5 days.
This should resolve it. Feel free to ask further
