Well, some people don't respond well to sunshine (just like all other
treatments.)
You gotta build up to it though. Just like building a tan: it can't be
done in one day. Burning is really, really bad!
You know, since our scales are white, they reflect light. So one must
find a way to make them less reflective.
Water, like a swimming pool or hot tub works real well for me, (I see
no difference with or without chlorine, but without invites infections
to broken or compromised skin. I won't swim in a fresh water
lake..ever!)
There's a product called Zim's Crack Creme which is an oily liquid
that works really, really well as makeing the white seem to disappear.
And and smells good too. But it has some alcohol in it, and if you're
like me you don't give a crap what the doctors say: If it itches I'm
gonna damned well scratch it! And I've been burned bad by PUVA so have
been itching REALLY badly for about 16 years! When I scratch there's
no messin' around. I go for the blood! The alcohol stings, but pain
beats itch every time IMO.
