Brief Answer:
Need for regular treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

I have seen the attached pictures .
You basically have a chronic skin eczema .
In patients with this problem ,extra skin care is very essential.
Mix and apply clobetasol cream with Vaseline over the affected areas of body .
Use a mild soap like dove for taking bath .
Apply oil or moisturiser to the body after taking bath .
For itching ,take levocetrizine once at night for three to five days .
Wear cotton clothes.
Do not apply any other cream or oil over the affected area.
See a nearby dermatologist and consider getting a skin biopsy done if the problem still persists .
