Hi
Itching limited to one place and long time - the cause is local - at that place.
With reduced sensation, it needs biopsy (sample for analysis) - so that you don't miss a treatable disease and/or we don't miss a difficult disease at early stage
The best course of action will be to consult DERMATOLOGIST (skin specialist) - a proper diagnosis and permanent cure is possible..
Take care
Good luck
