Just keep the area clean. Alcohol would do little other than trigger pain. The itching is part of self-healing. Find some antibiotic cream (not ointment) that you can use daily while it heals. If you just keep the area clean it should self-heal in a week or so.

If there is a raw area, you may apply triple antibiotic ointment/cream to the wound. The itching is sometimes a part of the healing process. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines
