any 1% cortizone cream handles it pretty well....just got back from south padre island and we all had some measure of boogie rash

If cortizone cream is not working, it is either to severe of an allergic reaction or it may be fungal in origin. You will likely require a prescription cream to treat this
try rubbing some arnica cream on it, or you can take arnica tablets to heal it internally.
Use Allergen Plus!

Borage isn't cortizone, but helps your body to produce its own cortizone by stimulating the adrenal gland. To get the benefit of borage, you would consume it in a tea or infusion.
