When to see your doctor
See your doctor:

* if the sunburn is wide------ and severe;
* if the sunburn affects an infant under the age of 18 months;
* if the sunburn blisters are accompanied by chills, fever, nausea or vomiting. Medical attention is needed to prevent dehydration and infection;
* if your eyes are extremely painful or feel gritty. You will need to have your eyes checked by an ophthalmologist (an eye doctor) to determine any damage to the eyes. Corneas are particularly susceptible.

doctors say you should see them for that ----, but dont. They want your money (unless its life threatning). My mom works as a lab technition. When i burned (which in this case was worse than yours) my mom talked to a doctor and they just said lots of water and aloe lotion.

sun poisoning my friend, it sucks. its like sunburn with the flu...mainly dehydration and ----, but still sucks, go to the docs or if not, buy some aloe (girls ----, like banana boat, looks like jello) put it in the fridge for a while, get it nice and cold and put that ---- on like once an hour or so, it'll make that ---- go away pretty quick. I had sunburn when i came home from the waterpark last week and pout that on THAT nite and the next morning, i was a LITTLE bit red, not lobster red like I was when I got home
