my son is allergic to the sun?
He's 3..he breaks out in hives. Is there anything I can apply to his skin so he can be outside?
it's only when he's out in the sun. I was told it was probably sun poisoning.

I'm allergic to the sun as well. My dermatologist suggested I cover up as much as possible obviously. But I'm a total outdoorsy person, so I'm to wear a sunscreen that contains zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for true sun coverage. I will tell you though, I believe it's the titanium dioxide, but as much as you rub even a small amount of it, it will leave the skin very white. Since he's only 3, I would double check with a physician that those ingredients are appropriate for a child.

They have Kids suntan lotion that comes in a spray Bottle,I can't remember the name of it.Put a baseball cap on him when he goes out and they also have benadel disolveable tabs that might help him.

Are you sure it's not some pollen or something in the air or just every time you take him outside anywhere>

isolate him in the day and keep him up at night or well see a specialist

Ask your GP to refer him to a specialist.
