I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be xerosis,pityriasis rosea or eczema. Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash.
No treatment is usually required. In most patients, the condition lasts only a matter of weeks or months(upto six months).You can however apply mild steroid cream on the rash.
If the rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.Other possibilities have to be ruled out then.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.
