Can you recamend something to put on it? Besides ice?
Answer:
If you have swelling, you have toxins in your body from the burn. It's important to drink lots of water to wash the toxins out. You need to drink a coffee-mug size amount of water every hour. You should see results in 18-24 hours.Take Ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) every four hours. You can also put aloe vera gel on it, look for an ingredient that ends in "caine" such as Lidocaine or Benzocaine. It will help relieve the soreness.Good luck!
take some ibuprofen (motrin/advil) to help with the swelling. aloe may soothe the burn (places like whole foods sell aloe with out alcohol in it) stay out of the sun! and wait it out...
noxema works pretty well on sunburn
Aloe vera (a plant if you have it) or lotion should take out the sting, swelling, and heal it pretty fast.
Aspirin will help the swelling as will aloe and taking vitamin E supplements will help the process along and they're cheap and easy to find at your pharmacy
LOL, time heals all things.
go get aloe Vera and put it all over Ur face
i got sunburned once and it hurts huh?
i got some aloe Vera to put on my face and it healed in 4 days!
i still put on aloe Vera because the aloe Vera makes my skin soft and smooth!
well good luck to ya!
I truly would not mess around with blisters, you could have serious third degree burns, so be careful not to avoid medical help early. This method may not help to heal, but it sure helps take out the heat. It stinks a bit, but I found great results. Try 3 parts cold (ice cold if you can stand it) water, 1 part vinegar, moisten a soft cloth and lay it over the burned area. When your cloth gets warm, wet it again, repeat until the V/water is not cold enough to help draw out the heat. I also keep aloe Vera gel in the fridge.
Ouch! Okay, your first goal is to calm down the swelling and cool the skin down. Take Ibuprofin. That will help the discomfort and swelling. Now, when you burn the skin continues to stay warm. I like to hop in the shower and turn on cool water for a few minutes. You should also definitely ice, covered in a small towel, or wet a towel wring it out and place it in the freezer for twenty minutes or so. Apply regularly every half hour. Aloe is great, too! It helps heal and cool the skin. Glob it on and stand in front of a fan. Even better if its in the fridge. It will be about a few days or so until you are healed. And just a few days it will tan and then peel. Let it peel off naturally, you can scar if you pick it off. I don't know what you use on your skin but be sure not use anything with retinol, salicylic, glycolic, or lactic acids. No masks, or enzyme masks, no scrubs. Cetaphil cleanser is great. Or just use something that wont irritate your skin. Be gentle. Good luck!
