Causes of sunburn, the first symptoms and folk tips for the removal of pain
How many of us would not be warned that on the beach you need to stay no more than two hours - we do not listen to it and step on the same rake. Some also exacerbate the situation by sunbathing at all without applying a protective cream or lotion with UV filters. Do not forget that such a tan is not only dangerous for getting burns, but also a risk of getting pigmentation and growth of malignant and benign neoplasms. But the negative consequences can be talked for a long time, let's get down to business.
After you begin to feel a slight tingling and a feeling of hot on your skin, you must immediately take a cool shower. Just rinse, without using all sorts of gels, soaps and rubbing wool - so you will even more injure the skin.
Once the water procedures are over, spread the affected areas with soda or sour cream - this will slightly reduce the inflammation and reduce the itching. Apple's vinegar is also a good first aid for sunburn. But be prepared for the fact that the first sensations will not be very pleasant, since tingling is possible.
Try as much as possible to drink plain water - it will give additional moisturizing and speed up the process of tissue regeneration.

Wear large soft clothes made of linen or cotton. Synthetics do not allow the skin to breathe.
