This is called atopic eczema. It is seen in people who skin is much more dryer than others. It can be effectively treated and kept under control with some precautions. Please don't use Harsh soaps over the body. Some creams and tablets can help you get rid of the rashes which can later be kept under control with precautions. Kindly contact me in private chat for prescription.
