You may need stronger cream than cortisone OTC. Warm pack or hot tub does not help because it may exacerbate hyperemia. You should try cold compress and take ibuprofen OTC 200 mg x 3 q 6-8 hours with foods for pain if you do not have stomach or kidney problem. Lidocaine ointment or cream 4% OTC may be helpful for itching but it may not be strong enough but you should give a try.
