- As soon as you feel the effect immediately keep a towel drenched in cold water over affected part.Try to keep the part cool as much as possible.
- Keep the area moist by applying moisturising cream.
- If blister is formed do not break them. Give them time to heal on their own.
- If needed take anti inflammatory medication also.
- After few days when sunburn heals the skin over it and around it starts healing. Remove this type of skin gently and continue using moisturising creams.
When sun burn affects a large area or whole body accompanied by high fever and itching then immediately consult a doctor.
