How To Treat Severe Itchiness Around The Scrotum?

hi.I have itching problem around my scrotum, when i rub it, it becomes wound and becomes sticky. I consulted DR, he gave me calamine lotion and suggested to apply thrice a day but when I apply it, scrotum burns like a hell for an hour . Is it correct to apply? or any other alternative remedy? thanks
