Tinea corporis?: Might be ringworm, a fungal infection. Try using lamisil (terbinafine) cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks alternating with 1 % hydrocortisone. Do not wear a bra more than once a day without washing it. If no change, best to seek help from your PCP or a dermatologist who can see the areas and scrape them, if necessary for diagnosis.

See a derm: Hi. I'm not a dermatologist, but they sound like the could be eczema or psoriasis. Best to see a pro (a derm). Whatever it is, treatment's probably topical glucocorticoids. Good luck!

Skin condition: Tough to diagnose skin conditions over the computer. Itchy dry spots may be a type of fungal/yeast infection like cadidiasis for example. Best to get them examined and diagnosed properly for the correct treatment. Good luck to you.
