Sunburned! Help???!
Question: Sunburned! Help!?!?!?
Hey, i was at the beach today and i made sure to put on alot of sunscreen (that clear-mist spray stuff 50 spf) and i unfortunately missed a few spots, like the backs of my legs!. Also i forgot to put some on my face and my shoulders still got burned! I think i also got dehydrated even though i drank alot of water and powerade!. I have no aloe (unfortunately!)!. Is there anything i can do or put on it to feel better!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
i have a sunburn right now as well! and these are some things you can do with stuff you (hopefully) have around the house:
1!. if you have some potatoes, slice them 1cm thick and lie down and put them on the sunburned areas!. (dont ask me why it works, it just does)
2!. i know it sounds lame, but to relieve burning, soak in a cold tub!. (and when i say cold, i mean mildly cold, dont freeze yourself!)
3!. put more sunblock on your burn!. it will sorta sooth it, but its better if you put it on, then cover it with a cold washcloth!.
(this will also be great for going to bed)
i REALLY hope i helped!. feel free to email me if you have any questions!. =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah i use the spray stuff thats 50 spf too and i sometimes get sunburns in the weirdest places from it!!! i think u should go out or have someone for u and get some aloe and like another person said put some towels drenched in cold water on them until u get a hold of some aloe!. Good luck!!! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Ice, cold wet rags, chilled metal (like a coke can!), and, of course, wet yourself down and sit in front of a fan!
:) Hope you get to feeling better; be glad it wasn't your cleavage!. Last year I got 2nd degree burns on mine!. >!.<Www@Answer-Health@Com

it sounds weird but you can always bath in milk, or just mix hot water in the bath with some milk if you can't go out and buy 50000000 jugs!. IT REALLY WORKS!!! btw thanks for answering my question!Www@Answer-Health@Com
I know how ya feel!. When I had a bad beach sunburn and had no aloe I laid cold towels on my burns and laid under the ceiling fan! Get some Aloe ASAP though!Www@Answer-Health@Com
i'd say get to your nearest 24 hour store and get some aloe!. haha!.
or just soak in a cold bath, and put a cold washcloth over your face!.
drink water, too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
