View allIs it alright to put on aloe vera gel before applying sunscreen? I'm worried if it might cause my skin to darken or have some other effect. Any advice on this?
Wearing aloe vera gel before applying sunscreen is generally okay, as aloe vera has soothing and moisturizing properties that can help calm the skin; however, some aloe vera products may contain aloin, a compound that can increase skin sensitivity to the sun, potentially leading to darkening or discoloration, so choose an aloin-free aloe vera gel and apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 afterwards to ensure adequate protection.

I've been dealing with this weird sensation, especially during winters for the past 15 years, where it feels like a bunch of needles are trying to poke out of my skin. It's really intense and usually happens when I'm out in the sun or doing some physical activity. The only time it goes away is if I remove my clothes and touch something cold or scratch my body like crazy. It's getting worse, to the point where just being outside for a short time sets it off, and it's really hard to control, especially around other people. I've also started noticing these red patches on my skin wherever I feel the needle-poking sensation, and it's really worrying me because it's affecting my daily life and work. I've tried bathing with cold water in the winter, which seems to help a bit, but I'm looking for a more permanent and sensible solution. Any ideas on what this could be and how I can manage it better?

Cholinergic Urticaria: A skin condition characterized by hives, itching, and a burning sensation, often triggered by heat, stress, or physical activity. 2. Solar Urticaria: A rare condition where exposure to sunlight triggers an allergic reaction, leading to hives, itching, and redness. 3. Heat Urticaria: A condition where heat triggers an allergic reaction, leading to hives, itching, and redness. 4. Dry Skin: Dry skin can cause itching, irritation, and a prickling sensation, especially in cold weather. 5.

Consult a Dermatologist: Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to discuss your symptoms and undergo a thorough examination.
