Sunburn is skin damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) rays. Too much exposure to UV light can make your skin red and painful, which can later lead to peeling or blistering.
The severity of sunburn can vary depending on your skin type and how long you are exposed to UV rays.
The symptoms of sunburn include: (these may not occur immediately and can take up to five hours to appear)
- red, sore skin (erythema)
- skin that is warm and tender to the touch
- flaking and peeling skin after a number of days (usually 4-7 days after exposure)
Treating sunburn
Treatment for sunburn aims to cool the skin and relieve any pain or symptoms. Applying a cold flannel over the area will help cool the skin while lotions will help keep it moist. In severe cases of sunburn, you should ask your pharmacist for advice because you may need special treatment from your GP surgery.
You should see your GP if you have sunburn and you feel faint, dehydrated or have severe blistering, or if a young child or baby has sunburn
