    Default Got Burned!

    So I was mowing lawns all day for my college I go at for some extra cash, I was so tired I just went on to bed. Well, I woke up and I have a pink sunburn and it is blistering on my sholders and actually quite painful, it has hindered me from sleeping for a few hours.
    Asking if anyone knows any immediate treatments I can do so that I may sleep...
    I tried putting some of the wives intensive care lotion and aloe vera stuff....but it doesn't help the pain one bit just makes the bed all gooey.
    Thanks.

    At this moment, I could care less, I'm just dead tired, laying in the bed moaing and groaning, upsetting the wife because i keep tossing and turning and she has a 16 hour shift tomorrow at the hospital, and I have to work tomorrow as well.
    I just want sleep. Prayed to God and all that fancy stuff....still no sleep. Tried that lotion....
    Found some stuff called ocean potion in the back of the fridge I am going to try that....

    A mixture of bleach, rubbing alcohol, and gasoline always does the trick for me.

    Well, I don't want a chemical burn on an already what seems 3rd degree sun burn....I will avoid bleach and gasoline....and alcohol...
    The Noxzema? I skipped that I put on the ocean potion and now its all...like.... tingly and I don't seem to feel the pain that much... going to wait a bit for it to kind of dry.... I may have to see a doctor if I find more blisters...
    I was spreading it on and I felt blisters all on my shoulder and back... and they are alot in numbers.

    Going to attempt to go to bed now.
    If anyone has any longer term remedies to cure this up really quick....that would be great.
    I'm a little concerned that I have blisters...

    Yeah, I may have to pick some up.
    Um, I did some research and it says to put aloe vera....but that gel harms blisters....but aloe vera is a gel...so I am confused....
    Oh well, the aloe vera works. I managed to get a few hours of sleep. Wish I could have gotten more.
    Oh well. Ocean Potion seemed to do the trick for a temporary fix...blisters look awful. The wife is kind of worried....and I am to a little bit. I have never had a sun burn this bad and I am always out in the sun....

    You're out of luck.....suck it up. No amount of Aloe is going to save you. You burned yourself in the extreme way. There are ppl worse off then you dude....give it a couple days and you'll be fine.

    Yeah, We counted 12 on one shoulder and 18 on the other, there are 6 on my neck.... They are white and well, they look odd.
    They hurt to. I may end up calling out of work. There is no way I want a collared dress shirt rubbing on those blisters.
    Im not worried about the burn. I know they heal in a week or two. But its the blisters.... I have never dealt with those.

    2nd degree burns, how do I know? painful as f%^k and big blisters. textbook 2nd degree, and those should be looked at by medical professionals. you wont die tomorrow, but if a blister breaks it's a problem (i.e. a direct conduit for infection). if it covers a large enough portion of the skin it can affect you body's ability to regulate temperature....also an issue in this weather.

    get it looked at!

    Called the office says they are all booked up until Monday.
    I would have to have to pay the emergency room premium...if it is still painful tomorrow I will have to suck it up.
    Ridiculous though....I have 2nd degree burns, and she told me I'd have to wait until Monday to be looked at. Wow....
