I would like to know what does everyone use for uv protection to prevent flare ups from the sun! I am suffering very badly with swelling and inflammation I am in a lot of pain.
Cover up. I got some nice tops, skirts and pants that are cotton, and gauze for summer. I invested in a UV protectaice sun umbrella. I also bought a UV protection swim shirt and leggings from a surfing website that covers me completely but doesn't look weird on a beach. I use neutropenia 100% sun block. I got a few cute hats. I use Solar Shield sunglasses. Generally seek out as much shade as possible. ๐
I have UV hats, my glasses get draker in the light and there's this product Rit Sun Guard you can use to UV protect your clothes using it in a regular washing machine.
I has to be suv 50 or more or it isn't doing any good. Limit outside time. Wear long sleeves and a nice wide brim hat. My most sensitive time is late afternoon.
I wear hats all the time and long sleeve shirts. Sometimes I'll even wear some regular sunscreen.
I find there is no amt. of sun screen that can be put on to prevent fake ups. If I am exposed to the sun for just an hour I suffer about 2 weeks later with a flare up and it last for several weeks to a month. So not worth it. I use to be a sun worshiper.
