According to aetiopathylogy as per Ayurveda-  It is  Vata in Rakta with Pitta imbalance ( especially Bhrajaka pitta) 

The reason is consumption of too much sour, salty, dry, stale food. Frozen, packaged food, packaged sour juices, late night sleep and consuming cold water or cold drinks along with the food.

The Vata and pitta gets vitiated and vata dries up the place which is weaker in the body. This is called "Kha-Vaigunaya concept" in Ayurveda. 

The weakest part is affected and the dosha accumulate there and affect the "Dushya" which is Rakta and Skin (Tvak) 

The treatment is pacifying Vata, purifying the Rakta ( Blood) and Pacifying the Pitta.
