Suggest Remedies For Itchy Arms
Hi, My wife has develops too much itching on both her arms. And it increases a lot when she goes out in sun or hot summers. The colour of her skin has also started to darken. Someone has suggested Momate cream but I am not sure about this. Could you please advise. Regards,

Thank you for asking!
Momate is mometasone a steroid and indicated for such itching. It seems your wife has a solar urticaria and it needs antihistamines and avoidance of sun. Topical steroids with sun repellents would help. Try doxepin it works like charm for such itchings. Seek a dermatologist on your earliest convenience for a better management or ask our specialist dermatologists for a detailed management here
