That excruciating non stop burning, biting, itching, throbbing pain days after a bad sunburn? Apparently it's not common....would love to get some sleep have used hydrocortisone cream, aloe, antihistamines....not making a dent....hell!
I had a real burning itch after I got back from a really fun trip in Thailand. errrr....oops, you're talking about a different kind of itch. In any event, a dose or two of penicillin did the trick. Thanks alot Alf (he recommended a great "hotel" - you get what you pay for....)
