Answers:
Your mom is right about the Tylenol, it'll help!. they also have special lotions and gels that are made to help cool and relieve sunburns!. It won't HEAL it, but it'll make you feel a little better!. Also, because your skin has basically cooked, you need to try to remember to keep yourself hydrated - lots of water! That will help the healing process!.
Lotions will also help prevent really bad peeling!. If the burn is bad enough, then there's nothing you can do to totally stop the peel, but it can at least make it less intense, and not quite so itchy!. It's just important to make sure that your skin and body stay hydrated so it can heal as quickly as possible!.
If you can't get to a store that sells the special after-sun aloe gel or lotion (I recommend the Banana Boat brand, it really helps me) tonight, then I suggest you just get some Tylenol into you and drink plenty of water!. And try to find SOME sort of lotion in the house and start using it ASAP! Ihe ice pack will help, too, but it's important to get that lotion on your skin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use ice for sure, and get some aloe after sun from the store, it really cools your skin, use other lotion aswell!. YOu could try tylonel, it wouldnt hurt to try it!. Keep moisturized, other than that you just have to wait it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
