Hi...I am new to this site.
I have an allergic reaction to the sun. I first get a bumpy rash that turns into very itchy tiny blisters. They bleed easily, forming scabs and then mild scars. After I become tanned and my skin becomes tougher, the problem is less severe. I use very strong sunscreen (50-70 spf full spectrum)...applied often, but I still get the bumps.
I have been to several dermatologists over the years with no remedies which work. One prescribed a maleria medication to take for several months before summer and another one prescribed clobetasol propionate ointment...neither helped, the last suggested pretanning to help my skin adjust to the sun.
Anyone have similar skin problems that you have found a solution for?
Itchy in Oregon!!
