Sun Burn


Question Posted Friday August 8 2008, 12:56 am

I got a sun burn about 2 week ago.It's still sort of red and peeling. I don't think that is normal because it hasn't lasted that long before. Should I go see a dermotologist?

Sounds pretty normal to me, depending on how badly you got burnt will depend on how long it takes to peel etc.

If your skin become sore and inflamed, use some aloe vera gel to help sooth and rebuild the skin. It works really well and i would certainly recommend it. I got sunburnt VERY badly and went to the doctor, they told me that putting aloe on the burns would help clear it up.

If you're still having problems in a week or so then i'd suggest you going to the doctors.

hope this helped

Normally, when it peels it means it's starting to clear up and all of the damaged skin is coming off. But, it is an awfully long time to have sun burn. The longest I've had it was about a week.

If things don't clear up in the next day or two, definitely go to the doctor. They can give you medicine to keep on it and they will let you know if it's sun poison or not.

Wear sunblock!! The sun is now hotter than ever and is causing a lot of skin cancer.
