Extremely Itchy Feet, Sleeplessness, Rashes. Taken Benadryl. Help?
my son has extremely itchy feet after swimming at the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas. He is so uncomfortable that he is unable to sleep. he has been taking benadryl which has offered little relief. we have also done epsom salt bath with mint which helps for about 5 minutes. is there any thing else that can be done? he does not have a rash...

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
he has developed an allergic reaction.
Only benadryl will not work.
He needs treatment with topical steroids like hydrocortisone.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
