It may be lichen simplex chronicus most probably. Consult the expert dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to take intra dermal triamcinolone 10 mg injection by the dermatologist. And apply potent steroid cream twice a day. Take oral steroid in tapering dose for few weeks. Take antihistaminics daily at night. Avoid soap bath. Avoid worries and tension.
Hope this helps..
