Suggest Medication For Itching In The Chin

I'm currently living in korea, and I've gone to 2 doctors out here.
Before I went to the Philippines, and on the day we arrived back in korea I started having a very itchy part on my chin below my lip. The next day it became more itchy, but the itch spread more around the corner of my lip to the top, and the day after that it started to become swollen.
After it got swollen I went to the doctor out here and asked them. They said it was herpes, and gave me medication for it.
The next day I had lots of crust come out that was very yellowish, it was a bit on my lip and around both sides of my mouth.
At that point my cheeck started to have the same itch.
I took the medication, but i forgot some of the days and it started spreading to my cheek, and under my chin. On my jaw.
Long story short the itch on my chin and cheek had the same yellow crust on it.
I went to another doctor and he told me it was herpes. There were no tests done. Both doctors only viewed the sores.
Now im having intense itches on my other cheeck, but I put the bactoban on it that I got from the second doctor, and it hasn't broken out yet.
What do you think?
