I'm right there with ya buddy! My sunburn is killing me right now!. It's been 3 days since I was swimming and it still burns!. I have had one worse than this though!. The one I had before blister, bubbled, and seeped!. It was gross!. It didn't scar though!. I do however have a few freckles from it!. Keep yourself moisturized!. Happy healing :)~Www@Answer-Health@Com

Doubt you will scar - sounds like a first degree burn with the blistering - just gently use a wash cloth in the shower to break away the (peeling skin) when it starts!.
Also use a good facial lotion (aveeno) or something pure and natural - or a little pure/vitamin e

Second degree burns are pretty painful -

Next time be sure to use sun screen!. A few more of those burns will catch up to your nose in time -
Age spots etc but skin cancer too!. For now you'll be ok!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i have one right now too and i called the hospital and the doctor told me not to put anything on there but it hurt so bad, because it was a 2nd degree sun burn i had blisters and everything, so i went to the pharmacist and he told me to put this spray stuff on there its called lanacane its a anti-bacterial spray its in a whits/yellow bottle and has a blue lid!. i put it on yesterday for the first time and the itching stopped, my blisters went away and i feel so much better right now, i really recommend this stuff!. good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

You need to take care of your healing wounds!

If you can apply a bandage, put some honey on the bandage because it is moistroizing and antibacterial!.!.!. It will help it heal without a scar!.!.!.

If you can't put a bandage on then get neosporin and keep putting it on until it is healed!.

The more wound creams you put on it, the less likely it will scar!.

DO NOT SPEND TIME IN THE SUN UNTIL IT IS 100% healed!

Good luck!.!.!. ANd please believe me about the honey!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Thats exactly what I have, you know it's a second degree burn when it hurts bad enough that you cant move your nose!. Thats where I have it!. Mine peels so much and I look like Rudolf!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It may scar but doubtful!. From now on wear a good sun block and when you do burn be sure to hydrate your self well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
