HI,
Welcome to HCM.
I am suspecting contact dermatitis to some cosmetic or soap you might have used on those areas. Itching the rashes will cause more rashes to develop, so I would suggest avoiding scratching. You can take Tab XXXX 25 mg twice daily for three days and continue application of hydrocortisone cream. If the itching does not subside then you need to get yourself tested for allergies (patch test). Thanks.
