Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son has a severe sunburn that resulted in blistering on the head (he has alopecia and has no hair). The large blister popped and appears to be oozing a little. He said it doesn t hurt but looks moist and the ooze has since crusted on his head. Not sure if I should apply something to it, cover it, let it dry out. I didn t know if cleaning it is an option or even how to do it.
Signs and symptoms of sun allergy may include: Redness. Itching or pain. Tiny bumps that may merge into raised patches. Scaling, crusting or bleeding Usuing sun screen lotion while going out will help. Cold ice water can be used to wash the area
