Hi,
I think this itchy rush comes from a substance you used over wound. Most probably the plaster you used to cover wound raised an allergic skin reaction. Wash the area well. Don't use the same type of plaster anymore. Use a sterile gauze over the wound.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
