Hi. Greetings. Could you send photos of the same on follow up chat. This could be some kind of an allergy or seborrhoeic dermatitis. For now you could use a good moisturizer for symptomatic relief, however you'll need definitive medication after diagnosis is made. Alternatively see a qualified dermatologist near you. Warm regards Dr Govind Suresh Mittal.
