Im currently on vacation in Mexico and about two days ago I got a 2nd degree sunburn on my back and arms.
The first night I had a lot of pain.
Right this second my back is having a very uncomfortable feeling.
On random spots of my back I feel little pinchs or tweaks that feels like a pin rapidly poking me and it feels extremely itchy they keep poping up on my back and it feels like its under my skin, it is very uncomfortable and annoying.
I put a bunch of aloe, aquaphor(which really helps), and several other lotions on my back but it doesnt seem to help.
When I try to sit up straight I get a bunch of feedback from the weird poping things. My dad says that it is new skin being developed, is it?
How can I make it feel better/stop?


Thank you for your time, an urgent response would be greatly appreciated because I really want to go to bed.

You could have a serious burn, I would consult a physician but until then use aloe.

Just wait it out and keep on putting the aloe on.
You can't do much, just wait for the new skin to be done coming in.

Pain Pills. Aloe. Sunscreen for the future. Remove the dead skin by fighting the pain and showering.

Put the aloe on it then Get a big fan and point it on the burn spots i get sun burn 2-3 times a year trust me on this one. Also if you have a window air conditioner sit with the air blowing on your burn spots. And if your still in Mexico you can buy prescription pain medication at the pharmacy without a prescription (really cheap). Dont try and take it back to America you can get in trouble
