Brief Answer: Lichenoid Dermatitis/Chronic Dermatitis Detailed Answer: Hi. Thanks for such clear pictures. It seems Classical Lichenoid Dermatitis. I could see that the Skin is Thickened, Dry, Scaly and Pigmented in that area. Mupirocin won't help at all because its just an antibacterial ointment. Apply a good moisturizing cream twice OR thrice daily. I would advice that you consult a dermatologist who should prescribe you certain creams/Ointments which would be Steroid based (specially the one which contains either Clobetasol propionate OR Mometasone furoate). You can use this cream at this patch for 2 - 4 weeks over and above the moisturizing cream. Along with this you can take an oral antihistamine like cetrizine 10 mg once daily for the itch part. Follow this and it will really help. take care regards Dr. kakkar
