Just recently, I have increased my swimming to several times per week.:) Suddenly the skin of my neck and chest are getting really itchy the day after swimming. :badday:I have tried slathering baby oil on it before swimming and although it helps somewhat, it hasn't solved the problem. Do any of you have good experiences with some of the other swimmer's protection products that are out there?
I have developed that problem, too. Several things that help me manage my situation:
1. Check your shampoo to see if ingredients have changed. I used Paul Mitchell and when I started itching like crazy, I discovered that they had added a flower essence to the ingredients!
2. Cera Ve body cream is great. I put it on after swimming and it lasts about 24 hours.
3. If you are getting hives, too, try Alegra and Zyrtec.
Itching stinks! Hope this will help.
