Any advice please? My poor DH has a skin rash caused by the sun (but not prickly heat). Does anyone have any ideas of things we can use to get rid of it/prevent it?
Unfortunately he has had it for the past 7 years, whenever we have sun!
TIA BH

BH...is it Polymorphic light eruption? My ds2 has this usually the first few times he's in the sun. I use Aloe Vera gel to calm it and his hayfever antihistamine if its bad. This year we used the new Soltan sun lotion (five star UV protection) and it's been less severe. HTH

Thanks Luckymum. I'll give the Soltan lotion a try!
