What Is The Most Homeopathic Way To Alleviate The Symptoms Of Sun Poisoning?

I recently spent 6 days traveling on a motorcycle in sunny weather and have developed a family of bumps and welts that itch like crazy on my neck, face, hands and forearms. I suspect it's sun poisoning. I am also experiencing nausea and loss of appetite. What can I do to make these itchy bumps & welts disappear and how long will it take? I prefer it not be by prescription medication or drugs, but something homeopathic. Help!

    Ok- I get hives on a regular basis after I get sunburned.  I have tried everything on the market and I am thrwith all that.  I have discovered my own treatment and it works for me.  It may work for you too.
    You just take regular instant oatmeal (quaker oats or whatever is available) and mix it with water until it's thick enough to form a paste like consistency.  Cover it and chill for about 15 minutes.  Remove from fridge and plaster the mixture all over the areas of 'itchy bumps' or hives.  It looks super gross and we in our house call it 'The Vomit Treatment' because that's what it looks like; like you've thrown up all over yourself.
    Leave this on for 15 minutes at least, 30 if you have the time to spare.
    Jump in the shower and rinse the half hardened stuff off of your person and then pat dry and use some medicated powder/cornstarch to keep the area dry.  Do not use a lotion.  Take some Benadryl for the itch, but just mix the oats with water.  I've tried mixing it with aloe vera, or calomine lotion....just works better in reducing the inflamation of the hives with just the water.
    Good Luck from someone who has to deal with this on an ongoing basis.

        Why you are only looking for homeopathic medicine, you can find different sun blocks as well as prickly heat powders and lotions that can secure you from hazardous aspects of sun. For nausea and appetite problem you must consult a practitioner
