Rash

[cuddlebuggy]

I got a bad heat rash after using certain types of sunscreen. Try using a medicated powder like Gold Bond or even baby powder and keep taking antihistamines. Good Luck!

Ahh flyaway... That's what I have been given prednisolone. Rep.

I hope its side effects don't hit you as badly they did me. :< It really does work wonders on allergic reactions, though!

I do I as I'm working in a coffee shop... Did it clear up within 3 days? X what side effects u have?

Get well soon. I am sorry you are going through that. Don't ever use that product again!  You might also want to check the make up you use too as sun screen is often in those.

Yep was definitely gone in 3 days!

The biggest side effects I had were insomnia and irritability. No matter how tired I was or how hard I tried to get to sleep I would be wide awake until 4 am. I also started to have a really short temper but that could have been influenced by the lack of sleep more than anything. I also was taking it for a week which meant I had more time for side effects to show up.

Thanks i dont plan on using it again. Yeah im sensitive ho some makeup already especially avon. That's good, the itchiness is driving me mad and I can't help scratching. It kept me awake last night. Can't wait til it's gone. Hopefully I won't suffer those side effects.

I think you are mostly sorted but when I had Hives my mom put Calomine Lotion all over me. I had pink polka-dots! (way more fun when you are little...) and I would soak in Oatmeal baths. That helped a lot. I know she bought some sort of Aveeno Brand bath made up. So it wasn't just some oatmeal that she dumped in there. Though that may work anyway??

Ooh yes Aveeno, also known as colloidal oatmeal, baths are fantastic for this! Make sure it's packets with the powdered oatmeal, not the lotions or body washes. It'll also make your skin nice and soft for a few hours too!
