I have pimples after the beach?

23-year-old woman3 years ago
I went to Ontario on the beach and during the last few days, I have small pimples that appeared on my thighs and calves. When I scratch a little bit, they itch afterwards. From a distance they look white, paler than the rest of my skin. What can I do to relieve myself?

Hello, thank you for your question!
This is a fairly common problem among beachgoers :) but it tends to disappear on its own.
What you can do is apply a fragrance-free moisturizer, such as Aveeno (which contains oatmeal and can greatly help reduce irritation and itching). It can be used all over the body and face, as often as needed during the day, whenever you feel irritation or itching.
If you have no contraindications, you may wish to take an anti-histamine such as Reactin to help relieve the irritation. Your pharmacist will be able to personalize the consultation, tell you which product to take, and document your case for follow-up.
I hope I've helped you, do you have any other questions?
