Tanning Bed and Sun Allergy

.Hi,

A few week ago, I decided to try a tanning bed it works really fine, but after the last 2 sessions, I get terrible itch on the abdominal area, I see no sign of rash or small pimples, it only itches a lot. Should I stop tanning completely or is there another way ?

Thank you

dchabotMaybe this is a heat rash--a sun allergy would be all over. If you must tan, apply baby powder before you start. But must you tan?

Best.

Dr. Rockoff
