Q: "Rash" won't go away

I scratched my leg at work a few months ago, and after about a week, I realized that the actual scratch had mostly healed, but was now surrounded by several bum/blisters that itch like mad. I used neosporin and sarna lotions to try to alleviate the itch, and when I began to think it might be mites, I used permethrin which immediately stopped the itching. This has been going on over a month now, and it doesn't seem to be healing.
Here's a pic of the area. Any ideas? I have a doctors appointment, but it's not for another two weeks. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Cheers,
Hil
