Hello,
Morphea is localized scleroderma leading to thickening of the dermis and subcutaneous tissues. Corticosteroids is the main mode of treatment . Other therapy with topical calcipotriene, tacrolimus 0.1% ointment (under occlusion) and imiquimod 5% cream may also be useful. PUVA and photodynamic therapy is also found to be useful.

You can consult any good dermatologist in your area or in the metro cities and discuss these treatment options with him.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
