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.
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 http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/ask-doctor-online I hope it helps
