Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might be suffering from psoriasis.
A chronic plaque psoriasis presents in this way.
Your description matches with it.
It is an autoimmune disease.
Treatment is with steroids and emollients.
The plaque will keep remitting and reappearing.
A photograph would have helped me in giving a closer diagnosis.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
