Hello,
If it is very itchy you can use an over the counter hydrocortisone cream twice a day and that will help with the itching. Keep taking the antihisatmine (allergy relief tablet) as that may also help. Also try to stay cool and keep the skin moist with a good lotion in between hydrocortisone applications.
