Don’t worry. Itching is common during and after chicken pox.
Do not use harsh soaps or pick on the lesions.
Apply moisturiser as a routine immediately after bath.
To understand whether you need any medication, need to see the pictures of your lesions
Next Steps
Do online consultation with proper pictures

Hello
The itching could just even due to the dryness you have... the dryness sometimes can become eczema or dermatitis which gives severe itching and can be prolonged...
Next Steps
Consult online with pictures to achieve good results
