Suggest Treatment For Burning Feeling On Chest
I got this sun burn feeling on my chest, but I haven t been in the sun unless I have a shirt on. It isn t really hurting, but when I touch it seems a little sensitive like a sun burn. I figured its because I m in japan and my allergies are just attacking up since the different weather pattern. I m from United States also.

Hi,
Sunburn is an inflammatory skin disease caused by exposure to sun in sensitive people. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
I would suggest..
- sunscreen lotion to apply on exposed parts
- mild steroid cream on affected parts at night
- vitamin C
- antihistaminics
- steroids in tappering dose
- cover the affected area while you are under sun
I hope this would help you.
Thanks
