August 5, 2010-Treating Sunburn

As much as we tried to protect and warn you, sometimes sunburns happen anyway. There isn’t much you can do to stop the pain and discomfort, but there are a few remedies that can help take the edge off.

o Use cool cloths on sunburned areas

o Take frequent cool showers or baths

o Apply soothing lotions that contain aloe vera to sunburned areas

o Drink lots of fluids
