Sunburn little pimples/bumps?!
Question:
Sunburn little pimples/bumps?
my brother got a really bad sunburn on his back. my mom only put sunscreen on part of his back. so the part with sunscreen is white but the rest is sunburnt. its been three days and tiny pimples/bumps has appeared. mostly on the white part (the part that had sunscreen)
what is it? how do u treat it?
my parents said its because of heat and they had it when they were in china sometimes and said itll go away in 2 or 3 days. i dont know though. im worried. is it something bad
Answers:
That happened to me after spending a day at the water park from 9 o'clock to 6 o'clock with no sunscreen. It was very painful for, like your parents said, 2 - 3 days. I did have little bumps pimple type things but it wasn't actually acne. A friend of mine told me it was either a really harsh sunburn (duh) or mild sun poisoning. Sun poisoning sounds deadly and scary but it's just a harsher form of sun harm to your skin. I wouldn't be worried because the skin is our best protector and is very good at healing. Just be ready for some extreme paling and pinkness (My shoulder's look a little burnt still and it's been 3 weeks). Make sure to use aloe or other skin healing lotions to relieve the pain and help the healing process.
