Hey guys,
Anyone have any experience with either of these?? Last Sat (July 28th) I did a swim in the Hudson. A couple of days later, I got a bumpy rash around my left knee. Kind of look like mosquito bites, but they haven't gone away yet and are still itchy. I went to the dr. and he gave me a cream and suggested they might be bed bug bites, but I don't think they are. They're only in one isolated spot on and around my left knee.
Well, this past Sunday I did a swim in the Atlantic Ocean. Last night I noticed this disgusting rash on my stomach and part of my back. It's starting to itch more and more.
I've been doing some research online, which has been helpful. I'm pretty sure I got swimmer's itch from the Hudson and Seabather's Eruption from the ocean. Has anyone dealt with either of these? Did they just fade away? If someone could share their experience with either, that would be great! I feel like my whole body is covered in a rash :(
Thanks!
I am highly allergic to "sea lice" and get them like crazy. I have been SAVED by Safe Sea. Sounds crazy and I don't know how it works, but seriously, it does. You can order it on their website and while it's not cheap, it's so much better than the suffering!
I do a lot of ocean swims and use this for every one. Just spent a week in Mexico this past April and was doing swims as long as 2 hours with no problems. Typically, it's supposed to wear off before then, but I've had luck with it lasting for longer.
I'll be swimming in St. Croix again in October and will DEFINITELY be using it.
Good luck!
