What Causes Severe Itching Around The Waist?

I have tried a waist reducer and back support waist band. After two days I have developed a severe itch. I tried wearing it over my clothes as opposed to next to my skin. I have stopped using it but still itch. Any recon- emendation, I have tried using desitin, and ointment used for itchy skin.
