I have a severe sun allergy that is causing my skin to feel very tight and stretched; what medicines or creams should I use to treat this?

Asked by Female, 30 · 1 month ago

To relieve the tightness and discomfort from a sun allergy, focus on soothing your skin. Apply a cool compress, followed by a fragrance-free moisturiser or pure aloe vera gel to restore hydration. For itching and inflammation, a mild over-the-counter 1% hydrocortisone cream can be applied to the affected areas. An oral antihistamine like cetirizine or loratadine can also help reduce the allergic reaction, while ibuprofen can ease pain and swelling. Please avoid further sun exposure, wear protective clothing, and stay hydrated. If you develop severe blistering, fever, or dizziness, please consult a doctor.
