Suggest Remedy For Sunburns
I just recently got a pretty bad sunburn. I have had many sunburns in my life. The only difference for this one is when I press on my skin hard enough in the affected area the skin does not return to its normal state instead it makes an imprint (EX: When i press hard enough with my finger it leaves the imprint of my finger for almost a minute). should i be worried?

You got sunburn...no need to be worried about...
Just wash your burnt area...apply some antibiotic cream with soothing effects...do use antiallergic like fexet..and painkiller like ibuprofen....do use sunblock in future when going in the sun again...multiple times sunburn expose you to skin cancer...so you need to protect yourself....thanks
