Hi. Welcome to healthcaremagic
I would keep a possibility of Allergic contact dermatitis.
If I was your treating doctor I would have asked you to apply a moderately potent topical steroid twice daily for a week or 10 days.
An OTC antihistamine e.g cetrizine once daily would help in controlling the itch symptomatically.
