Hi Tinker, you can try with calendula - I use this one: Hyland's, Calendula Off. 1x, Homeopathic Ointment, 1 oz (30 g) - iHerb.com
It can be hard to find out what causes a rash. I used to have a rash since childhood, and 7 years ago it disappeared. Few years later, it returned. So I did some brainstorming, trying to think of what I did differently - did I eat or drink something different? could it be hormonal? (I was pregnant or just had my first baby when the rash disappeared), could it be weather change? ... this way, I found out that I had a shortage on D3 vits, the vitamin we get from the sun. So in the months with less sunshine, I take D3 vit supplements. I don't get this rash any more.
Try to think of something that is different, something that could cause the rash, it could be something simple as cheese or peanuts.
I also suggest that you take a good multivitamin, extra C vitamin, and fish oil capsules (omega 3) (I get mine all from iHerb.com, the brand Now Foods), and if you don't get out in the sun much, also D3 Vits (minimum 1,000 IU).
If the rash is very severe, you may want to consult a (christian) orthomolecular consultant. They often know more about rashes than dr's do
Hope you find answers, if you have questions, please let me know, feel free to cc mail me.

Try putting some hydrocortisone cream on it. Doctors often prescribe it for rashes, but you can buy it yourself at most stores. Even Wal-mart has it. It is used to bring down the swelling and itching.
By the way, the advice that Kaitlin gave about figuring out what you did different or what changed is very good advice.

You can also try calamine lotion which is for poison ivy, but who knows it might be worth a shot, or just some dry skin lotion because it might just be the dryness of the rash thats making it itch.
Did the doctors prescibe any antibiotics? Im surprised they didn't give you anything to put on it like an antibiotic cream, speaking of which, you can also try putting Neosporin on it. It has some antibiotic medication in it.

could you be developing a nickel allergy??? staph infection??? fungal infection????? i recently warded off a fungal infection, but i am still fighting the staph infection and nickel allergy. all three of these gave me itchy rashes. i recommend A&D ointment (normaly used for diaper rashes or tattoos), hydro cortisone valerate, and/or chamomile lotion. good luck
