Aloe Vera gel is a god send!

as is nivia cream! lather it all on as soon as you get burnt and re apply when your skin feels dry again!Www@Answer-Health@Com

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

Aloe vera does great things!. As a hiker, runner and lifeguard myself, I have learned a neat little trick!.!.!. skin firming lotions!. Apply after you get a sun burn or when peeling!. It helps your skin recover faster and when used with some Aloe, it is very soothing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
