STOP: do NOT use Hydrocortisone on your scrotum! You have a chemical burn. You should see a doctor for a thorough exam due to the area that is burnt. In the mean time you can use Vaseline to cover and sooth the area.

Local care: The OTC Hydrocortisone and Soothing ALOE with Vit E cream can help. If it starts to get infected, then see the Doctor. Best wishes.

Careful: Keep it clean- water and soap only, avoid friction- loose garments, look for signs of infection. If itching gets out of control use OTC Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or similar.
