hi thanks for sharing your problem here in this forum..
you got sunburn 4 weeks ago..it will be healed now.the itching is due to the healing process .i will advise you to use anti allergic like fexofenadine 60 mg twice a day..and better to have white petroleum jelly massage twice a day..do use sunblock when going out again in the sun..thanks
