I have had post herpetic itch in the last 9 months. I have chronic itching in the genital area I tried to take Lyrica and also actinium and it hasn't given me any results. is this condition likely to be treatable ? 
what is the most efficient way to treat this condition and heal it altogether ? 
who are the biggest experts that you know in this field even their names you can let me know that would very likely be able to treat this for me ?

Has the itching that you've experienced be daily?  Itching from herpes would be intermittent, not constant. Is your itching accompanied by lesions?   Have you been evaluated in person and swabbed for other things that could cause itching, like fungal infections?  Have you taken daily antiviral medicines to see how your itching responds?
