Brief Answer:
Dipsalic-F ointment followed by Efaderm cream

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mr Dingra.
I trust this reply is quick, to the point & gives you the desired relief.
I have seen the clear digital images you provided, Thank you.
Please do use Dipsalic-F ointment twice daily on the spots morning & evening for a period of 10 days to 2 weeks; Follow this up with the use of a moisturiser like Efaderm applied as much as required for the remainder of the month.
Both named products should be readily available at any pharmacy.
Good Luck & Wish you continued good health.
P.S...don't think quadriderm is the cream that would work for this condition.
Best Regds,
