Sun poisoning?!


Question:

Sun poisoning?

I went to the lake on the Fourth and wore sunscreen, but still got a pretty bad sunburn on my back and feet. Today I noticed a weird rash on my legs; kind of dark red and spotty, like I was poked over and over with a needle... Could this be sun poisoning and is this something I need to see a doctor for? Here's some pics of it... kinda crappy ones; my camera won't take good close ups. Haha.

Answers:

yes. I have gotten sun poisoning before and it looked just like that. My mom's a nurse and that's what she said it was. Take some benadryl (take it at night because it makes you sleepy) and you'll see a noticeable difference in the morning.
