# Bicarbonate of Soda added to the warm/tepid bath water - 1/2 to 1 cup to the full bath water
# Calamine lotion - applied to spots, or put in the bath
# Many find Calamine lotion too drying, so try Calamine cream
# Older children can be given a paintbrush so they can paint their own spots with Calamine
# If Calamine too drying you can use it mixed with aqueous cream or E45
# Paracetamol, Ibuprofen and Chlorphenamine (Piriton) will all help - particularly good before bed to get them through the night
