: Keep the area clean &amp; try a simple hydrocortisone cream in a thin layer. You likely developed a chemical burn or an individual allergic response to the iodine or other ingredient. Antifungals are unlikely to help. A cool compress can reduce the itching. The area should heal from the inside out in a week or so.
