Sunburn

[DesMcK72]

I have sunburn on my legs from just above the kneecaps to my ankles. I've had the sunburn since Monday. I have no swelling, my legs are pink. The thing that hurts are my shins, they feel like they are on fire. I put aloe on, but they still burn. What the heck is going on? Will this eventually go away?

My wife had a bad sunburn on the top of her feet a long time ago. Her doctor called her in this silver cream that worked great for the pain, etc. I'm sure it's still available. Call your doctor!

I have fair skin so I am prone to sunburns. A product I find very helpful
to deal with sunburns is Solarcaine. I get the Solarcaine in a spray can
that way you don't have to touch your skin which you says feels like it
is on fire. Just use the spray in a well ventilated area. Follow the instructions on the Solarcaine spray can very carefully. I hope you feel
relief soon. Sunburns are very painful. Hopefully, that will help you. Eve

Sounds like you have a severe burn.  Is the aloe 100% pre aloe?  It makes a difference.  Also, take ibuprofen for the pain and drink lots of orange juice and use a good lotion.  You probably should habe seen a doctor.  A sunburn is just as bad as any other burn.  Feel better.
