Answers:
I know that you've probably heard the aloe vera thing A LOT!.!.!.believe me!.!.!.but it really does help if you keep reapplying it!. If you store it in the fridge, it can give you more of a relief when you first put it on!.

Ice packs (in small amounts of time) and cold cloths or compresses will also help to minimize the length of time that you have redness and should help with the swelling!.

Take lukewarm (room temperature) BATHS!. Taking showers with too high of a water pressure could increase your pain!. Taking a too-cold bath won't help, and will make you freezing!. And a too-hot bath runs the risk of burning you even more, or irritating the burn that you already have!.

Make sure that you drink PLENTY of water, in order to keep your body hydrated so you don't develop a fever!. If you do develop a fever, take an acetaminophen or an ibuprofen to help get rid of the fever and to minimize inflammation and swelling!.

If your sunburn is really bad and seems to be very painful, you may want to go see your doctor and get a prescriptive treatment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ah, sounds bad! Try a cool bath and just sit there with a book for a while, I hope you are in a house where you can get away with wearing minimal clothing as I'm sure any material would hurt! And smother yourself in moisturiser or after sun, every time you feel yourself drying out put more cream on, and drink plenty of water too!. It should only last a few more days, then you will have a beautiful tan!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well you should buy some after sun!.!.!.
Put it in the fridge before you use it, so its nice and cold and spray it over your body!. Take a nice cold bath/shower and moisturize your skin with moisturizer cream!. Try putting some thing soft on you bed to lie under, and keep your window open and maybe get a fan!.!.

Try and stay out of the sun for a while too!.

I hope you feel better :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

First thing is Tylenol!.

Second, soak in a cool oatmeal moisturizing bath by Aveeno!. Pat yourself dry, do not rub!.

Third, Hawain Tropic Aloe Vera in the green bottle, not the white!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The pain is caused by the inflammation of the skin cells, so an non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (eg Brufen) should help a bit!. Plus use a good after sun topical lotion!. Cool packs should also help a little!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

just put moisturizer where you have sunburnt
it usually sooths the pain for meWww@Answer-Health@Com
