Good morning, ma'am,
It is very difficult to see clearly unfortunately. Is there anything that has been applied to it?

No nothing for the moment

Thanks for the feedback
The basis of treatment is moisturizing the skin and other non-pharmacological measures:
A fragrance-free moisturizer such as Aveeno, Cutibase, Base Glaxal, Cerave and others should be applied as often as needed. The cream should be applied whenever the need to scratch arises, among others.
Avoid scented soaps, and after the bath or shower, avoid rubbing the skin vigorously: instead, lightly pat the skin to leave a thin layer of moisture, then apply the moisturizing cream within 5 minutes of leaving the bath.
If the lesion swells or worsens or if there is pain, you should consult a doctor.
