Answers:
You need to go to a pharmacist and show him/her your sunburn ask them what the best thing is to use for it. Sunburns can take 1 to 2 weeks sometimes longer. I had one once that left a huge scab on my leg from being burnt so badly from the sun. You need to be careful when you go out in the sun and use sunscreen! You could end up with skin cancer especially if you are fair skinned. My suggestion is Aloe Vera that you buy in a bottle at the drugstore such as: Rite Aid, Walgreens, Target, Walmart, or some place like that. There is also lotions you can buy as well for that kind of stuff that helps keep the skin hydrated. Be sure to drink lots of water and or gatorade.

It shouldn't last more than a week, and to help use aloe vera gel from a plant,or from a store.
There are after sun gels or gels for burns. When you're at home, cover yourself with yoghurt, it is very cooling. Aloe Vera is good. Also there's this stuff from wal-mart. It's blue, it's called 'cool breeze' or something like that.
it should last!***
TIME AND REST. I HAD IT A WEEK AGO. NOW MY SKIN IS FLAKING AND I CANT STOP ITCHING, I FEEL LIKE I HAVE FLEAS!
get some aloe vera gel and rub it over the blisters.When I get nasty sunburns,that's what I do and it seems to work pretty good.hope it helps! I'm sure you have heard of SUNSCREEN! My goodness, why didn't you use it?
OK..take some aspirin (with food) to reduce the reddness and pain (2 every 4 hrs.), drink lots of liquids, use vinigar or aleo on your burns and above all.do not pull the skin off of the blisters. If they hurt that badly, ask someone to help you drain them; use a sterile needle and prick a small hole in them, press to drain the fluid but do not remove the skin. It will act like a natural bandaid. Wear loose cotton clothing. Give it a few days and it will feel better and start to peel. You can wash with mild soap and water; when it starts to peel, make sure you put on a moisturizer immediately after your bath.
If you keep doing this, you're gonna look like a prune in 20 years not to mention have skin cancer! Get out the sunblock next time, ok??
