I'm having this issue where my right buttock gets really itchy sometimes, and when I touch it, it feels like there's a mosquito bite there, even though I know it's not. The skin looks normal and isn't dry, which is confusing me. Any quick remedies or creams you can suggest to help with the itching?

sounds like you may be experiencing some form of skin irritation or allergy on your right buttock. To help relieve the itching and discomfort, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine cream such as Benadryl cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area up to 3-4 times a day. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Claritin to help reduce itching from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management."
