​​Thanks for the query. ​​This presentation can be seen with many skin diseases. The best option is to consult a Dermatologist in person to understand the problem and get it diagnosed. A proper treatment can then be started. Di​​scuss the situation and hope it will be cleared in few days. Don't delay the appointment. You ​​can use​​ a bland moisturiser till then. It could be possibly a type of psoriasis (less likely contact dermatitis) as appears from your description.
