How do you get rid of sunburn blisters?

In: Health, Conditions and Diseases, Skin Care, Skin Disorders, First Aid, Sunburn [Edit categories]

Answer:

I recently got sunburn blisters, and there's nothing you can really do for them to go away right away. I suggest putting aloe on them everyday and avoiding the sun until they go away.

As a former lifeguard for many years, I suggest using Bag Balm that you can find at Walgreens or Walmart. It has an antiseptic in it so it heals and keeps burn from becoming infected and it has a numbing substance in it. Aloe takes longer and doesn't numb the pain. You can also use it on your pets. They can lick it and it won't hurt them as you used to only be able to get it from feed stores. It is used on livestock wounds and cow teats.
