Some of you may have actually sun allergies. This is when the exposed to the sun and the skin does burn, you have intense itching of the area that is burned. You make also see swelling of the burned areas. Do not use any cortisone creams on the area. Yes, it will relieve the itching, but it also dries the skin out even more and can lead to more itching.
You can use benadryl cream, but only for a short time, like a day or two. This will help stop the histamine release and decrease the itching. I would also use a good moisturizer as I mentioned before several times a day to keep the skin moist.
