Suggest Remedy For Sunburns With Swelling On Face

I got sunburnt on my face yesterday. I applied Aloe Vera last night. I woke up this morning and noticed that my two eye lids were completely swollen. I also noticed that I have really bad swelling on top of my nose and directly underneath my eyes. I have blonde hair and burn easily but usually go really brown after. I did use sun factor so I m surprised my face is badly burnt and swollen :-(. Lots of TLC me thinks

hi...swelling of the eyelid after sunburn is a very common phenomenon because of the loose tissue in that area...no need to be worried so much...just apply ice packs wrapped in some gauze(not directly)..do wash the face..apply some soothing cream with anti bacterial effects like polyfax plus..if swelling is sever you can use denzen ds to reduce inflammation..hope you will be fine soon...thanks
