It may be an allergic eczema in which case try and eliminate what the problem could be, washing powder, fabric of trousers, pants, belt?

Graphites cream works for some and there are various emulsion things you can add to a bath and bathe in which can help.

Tea tree oil, its a natural antiseptic that can be applied to the skin or a few drops in a bath..

good luck.

I find that very drying and wouldn't use it on eczema, personally.

There's also E45 and similar creams and ointments, however most contain lanolin which some people are allergic to.

Silly question, but do you sit somewhere on a regular basis that might be contaminated with something? I have in mind that scandal a while back about leather furniture that was treated with something (stain protection? cant remember) that was causing people some terrible skin problems.
