What to do if the skin is sunburned and it hurts

If you experience obvious pain after being exposed to the sun, this is actually sunburn. First, patients can apply glucocorticoid ointment externally, and at the same time, they can use ice packs for wet compresses. However, if the patient has symptoms such as blisters and skin ulcers in addition to obvious pain, it is best to apply wet compresses such as boric acid solution or ethacridine lactate solution. This can effectively play a calming, soothing and anti-inflammatory role. Of course, patients need to take some antihistamines orally at the same time, such as loratadine, cetirizine, chlorpheniramine, ebastine tablets, and fexofenadine. These drugs can be combined with vitamin C to provide relief. Of course, if the patient's pain is very severe, some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken orally. The patient's sunburn is quite large, so it is best for him to go to the hospital for intravenous administration of some glucocorticoid drugs.
