View Full Version : Worst. Sunburn. Ever.

In advance: Shut up, and I hate you for whatever joke you're going to make. ;)
Everything is so sunburned, it's blistered. EVERYTHING. I wore sunscreen. I'm not that pale.
I'm red all over except in my hairline because it's so thick. My upper back, butt, stomach, shoulders, chest, and nose have blisters. Now, in his infinite wisdom, my dad suggested vinegar. That was terrible. I've been using aloe, some kind of sunburn gel, Benedryl, and prescription pain medication. So right now my plan is to go to my doctor tomorrow and sit around without clothes on seeing no one today.
I also realize this is a little funny, or a lot funny if you're not the one sticking to your chair. Any suggestions are welcome about certain things, like what I've dubbed "sun herpes." I don't think my explanations are needed. Thanks.

Do you really need to go to the doctor? I thought sunburns are just one of those things that take time to heal. Then again I never had one with blisters... ouch.
Just go read a bunch of books you have been planning on reading but put a side, you have the perfect excuse.
Oh and cold showers are nice.

My dad is partially black/Hispanic with some white on his mom's side, as I understand it. My mom's white. One brother looks black as coal. Other one looks almost white and has straight hair and tan skin. I have pretty light skin and eyes and dark wavy hair. Ain't genetics grand?
Some of the places these are kind of warrant needing doctor's attention, up to and including my nipples. It's WAY funnier than it sounds.
I was outside a lot in my bikini top/in the nude this weekend. My friend is a redhead and made out worse. :(

Thank you. I've been using it like mad!!!

You have blistering sunburn and you're thinking about shaving? Forget personal appearance for about 4 days. In fact you'd probably find looking like chewbacca helps cover up the unsightly sores. :p

Haha, that's one way to look at it.
So, it isn't all the painful, eh? I find that somewhat surprising. I've never been burned that badly, but the sunburns I've had have always been uncomfortable due to soreness. But, I'm really cautious with the sun because of the moles I have.
I still think we can spin the pictures into a "scientific research" angle.

I have a large beauty mark on my left thigh I keep my eye on, and I'm normally more mindful of exposing the tattoo on the other one that much. It's pretty sore, honestly, but not nearly so bad as it could have been.

__________________________________________________ ___
OP - careful not to dismiss sunburn as trivial or laughable - a condition called "sun poisoning" can be very very dangerous, even potentially fatal. A friend of mine nearly died many years ago by dismissing a bad sunburn, ended up in the hospital for over a week...
Aloe, as has been mentioned, is a very good substance to apply, and can't really be over done. I did notice one of the suggested remedies that you might want to be careful with though. I thought I had heard this before, so I Googled the subject and found:
DO NOT apply petroleum jelly, benzocaine, lidocaine, or butter to the sunburn. They make the symptoms worse and can prevent healing
Check out:
Medical Encyclopedia (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/MEDLINEPLUS/ency/article/000062.htm)
Hope you feel better, but I have to agree with some of the other posters, the visual of you sitting around all gelled up in the nude for a day is kind of titillating... :p

Oh my lord. You're my west coast half-Asian brother from another mother, Tiassa. :D I got a full Brazilian once and I'm still mentally scarred. She actually slapped my sore mound like you'd slap someone's shoulder after you made a doozy of a joke. I'm not an uptight person, but I screamed, stood up, tipped her, and left.

Should be able to. Will pop the Tylenol this evening.

Fill the bath tub with lukewarm water, or cool if you can handle it. Dissolve a box of baking soda in the water, and about 1/4th bottle of baby oil. Soak for 15 mins or so. rinse off with a shower. Get out, and apply pure baby oil to the whole body, dab your body dry with a towel. I guarantee this will work better that anything you could ever imagine!

Bummer, still, baby oil is the best, without question. I burn very easily, baby oil is really one of the few things that deeply moisturizes. Give it a try, its pretty cheap stuff.

No real advise, just a somewhat funny story to, perhaps, make you feel better and express my sympathy. Back in highschool I was in perfect shape (ran cross country, lifted weights, etc) and on a trip to Florida, decided to try out some Speedos someone had given me. Now normally, like most men, I wear the boxer type swimsuit. So the speedo's exposed more of my buttcheeks than had ever before been exposed. The combination of that virgin skin and the stronger sun in Florida resulted in my worst sunburn ever; especially on my ass cheeks! I didn't blister like you, but I remember it itched like hell. I tryed putting various creams on it with no relief. The only thing that seemed to help was going running really hard which released some natural endorphins and made me feel better. Hmm. You might try that, so I guess I do have some advise!:)
That was the last time I wore speedos.

Is it a permanent x?
Doesn't it make you feel a bit paranoid being marked with an x?
Stay away from balconies with flower pots perched on them.
I used to get very bad sunburn as a child.
My mother seemed to think that olive oil prevented sunburn.
Every year, without fail, out would come the olive oil.
The blisters of the previous year were forgotten.
If I get one of those deadly skin cancers, I am going to have a warning about the dangers of olive oil written on my gravestone.

TJ,
I ran tanning salons all through my 20's, and have seen many people try to tan "au naturale" and get themselves in a lot of trouble, as these areas rarely see sun and are much more prone to sunburn.
Do you have prickley heat? It's when your nerve endings get sunburned, and you will itch like a son-of-a-bitch. Believe it or not, I have heard using "Selson Blue" shampoo as an ointment can help prickley heat.
I can help with the application, if that is a problem. :)

You have a new boyfriend? ;)
I suggest starting with a lukewarm shower and inching it towards cold. It will cool off your skin, as it's probably still hot to the touch and will cause some of the swelling to go down. I was wearing shorts while gardening last week, and I look like I have over-the-knee socks on now. It was burned at first, now it's just tan. I always protect my head and face and always forget the rest.
When you get it really cold, it will produce the same endorphins as running. And it's better than drugs. (It's also great for a migraine, btw. Just a unbearably cold shower especially at the back of the neck and down between the shoulderblades.)

Yes. I like the added part in case you thought something else was suffering. Work doesn't want me in because I have open sores/blisters, so that's okay.

Yeah, he's okay. I'm not sick of him yet.
I'll try the shower thing. Tried running and found the strange dog and got a tick. Which is why I should never do anything.
And on a totally unrelated note, Liebling, I know you like a punk look and I found some really punky socks here:

I don't have an answer for my bad judgment. It's me. What do you think I was doing? :rolleyes:
Of course not, but you'll have to live with the consequences though ;)

These are my new favourites!

Speaking of new, and of new skin... you are going to need a scrub brush for all that peeling, you poor thing. And the itching... I don't envy you.
My legs itch today, so I give you about 3 days before you'll want to cut your nails down to nubs instead of tear off your skin by the layer.

You're so wonderful. Yet I must be wrong. Therefore the second statement is correct, but it can't be because I said it, so it's wrong. So this is wrong, but it's right, which makes it wrong. Understand?

See? Luci thinks you're a bad person, too!
Today it's better, mostly from drinking water and taking Tylenol. No more open sores. For the record, I think not overshowering helps.

Sad news: I think I waited too long to photograph the scabs. They're not showing good at all. But I promise the next time something bad happens to me or a loved one, I will take pictures!

takandjive, i know you were burnt badly, but I have a story for you.
Last summer me and my cousin went to our local beach. Before going he picked up some psilocybin "shrooms" and some powder-like weed called "kieff". I had never tried the drugs before so I was new to the scene but I told him I would try the stuff. When we were at the beach, I smoked the kief in a bowl and ate the shrooms in my car then went out on the beach and drank a Corona. During the trip I lost complete track of time and just enjoyed the visuals while holding my hands behind my head and my cap over my eyes. Mind you, I wasn't wearing any sunblock. I baked for nearly 4 hours in one place then got up to find the worst sunburn of my life. Seriously, I'm sure my DNA got damaged. To this day I can still see the faint lines of where I was burnt. I came back home later that day and my pupils were still dialated!

My oldest brother stood on the edge of the drawer that is under the stove. (The broiler drawer I think its called) He was trying to see what was cooking. A few hrs later HUGE blisters appeared. My youngest brother spent the next 3 days trying (and sometimes succeeding) stomping on them.

I once went deep sea fishing in Galveston bay. It was a 4 hour ride out, 4 hours of fishing, and 4 hours back. I was so exhaused after fishing, I went up to the sun deck at the top of the boat, and laid down on a lounger for the ride home. I rested my beer on my stomach, holding on to it with both hands. I fell asleep for the whole 4 hours, and when I awoke, I was red as a lobster, with the exception of a perfect beer-sized circle of white on my stomach, with two arm-sized white areas on either side. It was pretty hilarious looking, especially when I started peeling.

In advance: Shut up, and I hate you for whatever joke you're going to make. ;)
Everything is so sunburned, it's blistered. EVERYTHING. I wore sunscreen. I'm not that pale.
I'm red all over except in my hairline because it's so thick. My upper back, butt, stomach, shoulders, chest, and nose have blisters. Now, in his infinite wisdom, my dad suggested vinegar. That was terrible. I've been using aloe, some kind of sunburn gel, Benedryl, and prescription pain medication. So right now my plan is to go to my doctor tomorrow and sit around without clothes on seeing no one today.
I also realize this is a little funny, or a lot funny if you're not the one sticking to your chair. Any suggestions are welcome about certain things, like what I've dubbed "sun herpes." I don't think my explanations are needed. Thanks.
try getting some omega oils into you , 3-6-9 in the proper balance of course , 2-1-1 as much as you can take , with food
