I got very sunburned yesterday, HELP!!! Flying 22 hours tonight!?
Hey there, it being christmas day and all yesterday i spent 2.5 hours on the beach with my family, and as it was over 40 degrees, i spent most of the time in the sea. I applied sunscreen before i went out, and then twice at the beach but i've got horrible sunburn now.
it is the worst of the top of my shoulders, and it doesn't hurt on my stomach or back too bad at all, even though it is a little brown/flushed/red. My shoulders are classic sunburn red, but this morning they are so painful, as the skin has just got so tight, it hasn't blistered, so its not bad sunburn but i am going on holiday at in just under 24 hours, and i will be flying for 22 hours!!
Is the pain likely to reduce a lot by then or am i in for 22 hours of painful hell? Im appying aftersun lotion ever now and again which is helping to hydrate the skin, but it is still painful, so i've had some paracetamol which has made me feel a lot better, but that will only last for a few hours.
