Question:
How can i ease the pain to my second degree sunburn?
Ive tryed aloe vera gel and lotion, cold towels, baths, pain killers, sitting in front of fans, and burn relief sprays. Ive had it since saturday afternoon, and my knees are swollen to the point that I can barely walk... is there any home remedies or anything else I can try? I cant miss another day of work. Thanks for your help.

This information came from the site listed below:
Use cool wet compresses for first 48 hours. Some report baking soda or vinegar compresses are comforting. Do not use ice.
Cool oatmeal baths (Aveeno, etc.) may be helpful
May use aloe in first 48 hour
NO lotions or petroleum jelly in the first 48 hours!! These hold in the heat!
Apply moisturizing lotions after 48 hours
Aspirin taken as directed on the label may help ease pain
