Ask the doctor for Doublebase Gel. I found that helps with itching.

Ask for anti histamine tablets they really help

I use Conotrane cream (look in baby ointments) after every bathing & then if itch gets bad use Eurax cream, Vagisil personal itching cream or another make, some antihistamine ointment, , or haemmeroid cream or gel - anything that has Lindocaine in it which is a skin anaesthetic. I look at amount of skin anaesthetic & buy whichever is the cheapest. Some preparations for Athletes Foot work too.
