Treatment For Second Degree Sun Burn During Pregnancy
Hi I am 23 weeks pregnant and got a sunburn yesterday that i believe is a second degree burn. I have it on my arms, hands, tops of my feet, chest and upper legs. It has began to form blisters on my shoulders and i cannot lift my arms up hardly at all. Should I go to the ER or go see my obgyn to make sure everything is ok?
