REALLY bad sunburn?!
Question:
REALLY bad sunburn?
So, I have a terribly bad sunburn on both my shoulders, though my left shoulder is worse, from being out in the sun for 8 hours.
My shoulders are almost a purplish color and my left one is all lumpy and disgusting from blisters. I don't mean one or two blisters here and there, I mean my shoulder is like, a lumpy mess. I can't sleep for more than a half an hour at a time at night because the front and back of my shoulders both hurt and it's impossible to lay down like that.
Does anyone know the best thing to put on a sunburn like that?
I tried some aloe vera aftersun thing, and it's not helping a bit. I also heard putting vinegar on blisters helps, but I hear it hurts really bad....
any ideas?

Ah, thanks. I suppose I'll have to try and get to the doctor. It's hard when I don't live in town, and town's about a 20 minute drive from here, but we have shopping to do in the next day or so, so I'll get there eventually :)
Answers:
Noxzema Is one of the best treatments for sunburn. Your sunburn sounds very severe. I feel you should see a dermatologist as soon as possible.
Never go in the sun without sun block. Skin cancer is the most common cancer nowadays.
