Sometimes sun actually helps to lessen the symptoms. My brother is really fare and he has it his whole life, sometimes its been worse that others. He took up surfing and spending time in the sun has cleared him up. When he had really bad outbreaks he would use ointment...Lidex it was called. Supposedly ointments are stronger than creams. But you're only supposed to use them until the rash is gone, something about them thinning your skin if you use them where you don't have a rash.
Maybe take in some sun in the privacy of your own backyard and see if you get relief.
