Brief Answer:
Cutis marmorata
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up.
Itching is one of the hallmark of fungal infection.
Taking into consideration history and photographs the most probable diagnosis is granuloma annular or cutis marmorata.
Treatment is by topical steroid creams.
A biopsy is required to confirm diagnosis.
I suggest you to meet a dermatologist and get biopsy done.
It is important to confirm the diagnosis before starting treatment.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
