What Is The Remedy For Sunburn?
I received horrible sunburn two days ago. My face is still swollen & now goosebumps are forming on my left arm and chest. They burn to the touch & I m trying desperetly not to cry. Should I be worried or see a doctor & since I work in fastfood should I try to get a note to b escused cause in theory the fryer will kill me??

Hi...thanks for asking here in this forum...
It seems you got sunburn ...i will advise you to see your doctor so that you get some medical leave...
Also you should wash the burnt area...do apply antibiotic plus soothing cream like bacitracin with xylocain or aloe....do use antiallergic and use anti inflammatory...when the burnt area is healed do vaseline massage...use sunblock when going out in the sun...thanks
