Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having a reaction (itching/rash) to the chlorine in a pool. I have tried Benedryl capsules and they have given me minimal relief. I have also been applying calamine lotion with little to no relief as well. I have asked my doctor about a referral to a dermatologist but he does not believe it will be of any benefit. Any suggestions?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, now the option is to use the steroid and it can be tried and best would be Beclomethasone you can apply this three times in day, oral antihistamine can also be tried for this and best is Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
