Brief Answer:
You might need steroidal topical medicine

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Intense itchiness could be due to some fungal infection. Is there redness, pus or smell too? Are there any other symptoms? If possible, you may upload a photo of the rash here. To control the itching you can try hydrocortisone cream 2% on the lesion twice a day for 4-5 days. You may also try coconut oil or Vaseline over the area.

Better is to consult a dermatologist and get examined for a diagnosis.

Regards,
Dr. Vaishalee
