It may last up to 10 weeks. If it is just itching, you are not at any risk. Visit this site for information on this topic: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pityriasis-rosea/symptoms-causes/syc-20376405

It would be unusual for pityriasis rosea to last more than 10-12 weeks. Would suggest seeing your doc in follow up, question initial diagnosis and/or escalate treatment in case refractory form.
