Itch: Itching around the scrotum is common. Sometimes it's from friction, constant heat and moisture,especially if tight clothing is worn. Another common cause is jock itch or yeast skin infection. Avoid tight jeans, tight briefs and wear white loose boxer shorts. Apply an antifungal cream which can be recommended by your pharmacist. See a dermatologist as needed.

Needs to be checked: It may be a fungal infection called Tinea Cruris also called Jock Itch.I don't know what over the counter meds you have tried and we don't know what part of your genitals is itching.It may be a good idea to consult your doctor and get diagnosed and treated appropriately
