Sutures itch like hell which sucks. If it's also hot, red or oozing (i know both red and oozing will be hard to tell if you can't take the dressing down) or if you feel generally unwell then i'd get to the clinic because they could indicate an infection. but like makedamnsure said go back to the clinic if you can't handle it, they'll have a better idea of which creams won't irritate it further. An ice pack over the area can also help.
Sorry i'm not much help.
