Hi,

It might be due to eczema or contact dermatitis.

As the first line of management, you can apply topical steroid like Betamethasone for symptomatic relief.

If itching persists better consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
