Answers:
In the future
when you get burnt cool the skin at once!.
many people say that the burn does not set in until after the sun goes down!.

but in fact your skin continues to burn!.

doing basic burn treatments will help
as it is a type of burn

if you notice that you skin is becoming burnt
cool it off at once
if it is your whole body take a cool shower or bath!.

to prevent shock start with a slightly warm water shower continue to cool off the water until it is quit cold (not more than you can stand)
stay in it until you skin is quit cool!.

this will prevent the burn from getting worse and in most cases it will reverse most of the redness if you get the skin cooled in time!.

if your skin heats up again (the red spots being hotter than the rest of your body) take another cold shower!.

after your skin if cooled!. (wait for two hours to make sure) use a good cream!. one that does not have alcohol in it!. (most do)
keep your skin hydrated!.
drink lots of water and other good fluids (things that do not contain caffine and alcohol)

since it has been a couple of days
you could try to cool down the skin (if it is still hot)
and you can try the following!.


Cooling Vinegar Compress
Symptoms of sunburn
itching/ reddening and pain
can be relieved with a compress of distilled vinegar!.
To make saturate a cloth in undiluted / distilled vinegar and apply to the reddened parts of the skin!.
cider vinegar can also be used to a cooling compress
it disinfects and soothes the skin reduces pain and promotes the natural healing process
cider vinegar helps prevent swelling of the burned area and the formation of blisters!.

Apply cucumber slices to burned skin
they will help relieve inflammation and pain!.

Aloe-vera juice heals!.
the fleshy leaves of sthe aloevera plant contains a healing cooling juice that also helps keep the skin moisturized!.
the juice is most effective when it is absolutely fresh taken directly from the plant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is no real cure for it!. Your skin has been burnt!. Just like cuts, you can just make burns go away!. Your skin need time to regenerate!. Try a topical anti-inflammatory!. Yes, hemorrhoid creme will do the trick! Haha!. Keep it well moisturized!. And try getting an aloe gel with benzocaine in it or any similar analgesic!. That will numb your skin, so the chlorine won't hurt as bad!. A good moisturizer is critical here!. Chlorine will dry your skin out like a raisin!. It need to stay hydrated!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Burt's Bees makes an after sun lotion that helps!. You might also look for some waterproof sunscreen for the face that you can put on before you get into the water tomorrow!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
