I'm a college student and my university is in the Upper Peninsula (UP) of Michigan. If your urine isn't clear or close to it you are not drinking enough water. Taking some multivitamins will help boost your immune system and help your body heal your itch quicker.Obviously a hot shower will be painful and certainly wont help your sunburn heal so it should be a last resort. However, a hot, painful, shower will activate pain nerve endings while your brain will ignore the itch.
A hot shower seems to be counterintuitive since a sunburn caused the itch in the first place. If none of the above have helped, a hot shower should.If you have waited for an extended period of time and the itch has not became tolerable go on to step 5. Try removing the towel for short periods of time to see if the antihistamines and ibuprofen have taken effect.If you have some stronger pain meds go ahead with those but if possible take ibuprofen as well to help with swelling and temperature. Taking some ibuprofen such as Advil should help reduce swelling, lower your skin temperature, and reduce some of the pain.Hell's itch acts as an allergic reaction so antihistamines will work. Most people recommend Benodryl but the generic Kroger brand non-drowsy 24 hr allergy relief worked wonders for me. This is the most important step to finding relief.As long as the towel is in contact with the skin, the itch should be tolerable. Cool the affected area with a dripping wet towel.If you'd like to read my story scroll below!
