Management entails regulating triggers whilst simultaneously inducing “hardening”; that is, steadily increasing exposure to sunlight, as<unk>  sensitivity is reduced with repeated sun exposure Covering up with densely woven clothing has also been shown to help, in addition to applying a broad-spectrum, water-resistant semi-opaque sun protection factor (SPF) 50+ sunblock cream before sun exposure and then every two hours thereafter confers some protection. The application of topical corticosteroids may lessen the redness and itch, and for preventing predictable holiday flare-ups, short courses of oral corticosteroids are sometimes considered. Another treatment option is a supervised course of low dose phototherapy, usually undertaken in winter. If resistant, the administration of hydroxychloroquine in early spring is sometimes considered. As sun exposure is avoided, vitamin D levels may fall and hence supplements are sometimes advised.
