Question Burning Belts: Burn on the stomach from belts

What do you use to stop the burning from belts on the stomach?? I want to wear a bikini this summer and the burn mark left on my stomach is the strongest deterrent not my fat.... I've been using an anti itch cream with positive results but I wondering if there is anything else. Thanks.

It's a metal buckle that is burning.. I try not to wear it as much but the mark is really apparent on my skin.

Belts are not supposed to do that. Maybe you need to get a new one or adjust it so it doesn't touch your skin?? Hope the burned area heals well so you can wear a bikini!

Some belt buckles are made with nickle this often causes a horrible allergic reaction. You may need an Rx cream to treat it and you have to get rid of that belt!!!

I recommend Calendula oil for burns. It works very well and you can find it at a health food store.
