Answer 1

Uhhhhh don't you read the papers, honey? You will soon be the poster child for melanoma (a terminal skin cancer)or actinic keritosis, both cancers of the skin. You may forget your sunburns, but your skin never will. Do some research. Look up sunburns on Web MD.com. Those people who repeatedly burn look like they have skin made of saddle leather by the time they are 30, and there is nothing you can do to roll back the time. Protect your skin, or look years beyond your age when you are still young.

It's a 2nd degree burn, just like on your forehead from the curling iron. It can get infected, especially if it covers a large enough area. Go to the dr. and after he finished lecturing you about the miracle of SUNSCREEN, he may recommend an over the counter antibiotic ointment, a special bandage by Nexcare that is like a clear jelly, and keeping the area moist and clean.

I am a very fair skinned person, and after this happened a few times I quit sunning altogether. I'm 30 yrs old now and LILY white, but I doubt I will have skin cancer like my red headed dad...

You really need to do something about not letting this happen any more, ever. You are a prime candidate for the worst and most painful kinds of cancers.

Wear powerful sunblock, clothing that covers you, and wide-brimmed hats. Try to stay indoors from 11am-3pm. You need a sunblock of at least 30 spf, maybe higher. Talk to your doctor about this. Clearly you are very sensitive to the sun, and you may even be allergic.

The sun can be dangerous, you should be more careful.

They are blisters. I would before coming on to this talk to a dermatologist and ask them their opinion because you dont want to get the wrong if it is serious know what i mean? They have this spray. It is called Dermoplast. In fact I have a can of it next to my computer because I got burned badly this weekend. It numbs the skin and its uses are ... "First aid to help prevent skin infection for temporary relief of pain and itching associated with...

+Sunburn
+Insect Bites
+Minor Cuts
+Scrapes
+Minor Burns
+Minor skin irritations"


It has helped me so far and I have been able to wear my backpack without much trouble.

Answer 5

it extremely is terrible. there's a prescription drugs that's made purely for burns, your pores and skin will not be able to truly tell what sort of burn it has, in basic terms that it has a burn. The cream is termed silvadene, not sure of the sp, yet while mentioned that way, dr. will comprehend what you're speaking approximately. that's what they gave me for frostbite, and for a 2nd degree burn. that is fantastic stuff. don't get sunburned like that back, the stuff they say relating to the solar and maximum cancers is genuine! This prescription cream isn't properly established in non-scientific circles, and so the 1st element in lots of cases presented is aloe vera. i do no longer recommend to declare that's undesirable, that is in basic terms no longer virtually as good as silvadine, esp. because of the fact curiously like a 2nd degree burn and desires scientific interest besides. yet I guess ya they provide you that cream, they did me. Peace
