Suggest Treatment For Sunburns On The Back
I recently got sunburn on the entire backside of my body. However, the area that is burned on the back of my knees feels as though it is swollen. And today, when I looked at it to take a closer look, it almost looks bruised along the crease where my knee bends. What does this mean?

Hello,
I suggest you to avoid sun exposure, drink plenty of fluids. You can use ibuprofen to relieve pain and a corticosteroid cream apply topically. Do not worry after some days you will feel better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
