Yes they do, they are weird.  Their method is to go stand in the sun for a minuet one day and double that minuet the next day and keep on doing that until they've reached about 6 hourse of sunbathing a day.  My friend saw a Solaterran couple sunbathing for like an hour and creeped her out!

It depends onf how you define bad. If your burn is that bad, I would be mroe concerned about other symptoms, like for heat exhaustion or heat stroke. But being that you are coherent enough to be on here typing, that is probably not an issue. I would try to stay cool, apply a topical like aloe, drink lots of water, call your doctors office to check in if they have after-hours phone service and as the other folks said DO NOT MESS WITH THE BLISTERS OR OTHERWISE PICK ANYTHING! The more your skin stays intact at this point the less chance you have of infection. If your skin is blistering, peeling and you are otherwise feeling really sick, I would be seen first thing tomorrow. Most importantly, let this be your LAST sunburn. Every burn like this increases your odds of skin cancer. It's not something you want to take lightly.

Its indeed a precancerosis, a lot of people have it, especially those who have been in the sun a lot in their lifes, its easily removed with a laser, so if you have some, you should best contact a dermatologist

hmmm. It sounds like an allergic reaction to UV rays, meaning photo-sensitivity. I'm mildly photosensitive and I get the same kind of rash if I go out with out the SPF50 sunscreen than my doctor recommended. Give up on tanning and talk to your doctor. It sounds like you're photosensitive.

I personally had severe sunburns when I was a child, and the best thing is today I do not have skin cancer...my parents used large regular tea bags in a luke warm bath and then I soaked in it along with using aloe vera whiched helped stop my skin from cooking. To help prevent skin cancer and other sunburns always make sure your child has sunscreen on when in the sun and also on cloudy days.

Go to the store and buy a sunburn ointment. It'll help alot. Also, buy some spray-on Aloe-Vera= it'll make your skin feel cool when you rub it on.

Oh my gosh, you mean there are others? Are you a pretty pale person like me? I get it a lot. I can get it from really hot (heat hot, not spicy hot) foods too - like soup.  I get it from wine sometimes too. Everyone asks me why my nose turns red.  The dermatologist just said it was blood vessels and due to my skin being so light, it looks a lot more prominent. I find that if I keep very well hydrated, it is a little less extreme.  So glad to know someone else has that problem too!

Hey man be careful with some crazy people up there. Oatmeal, lemon juice, vinegar IS NOT GOOD AT ALL. Those things could make it even worst. Take a pain killer like Advil or Tylenol. Also, get Banana Boat Aloe Vera gel. Put it in the fridge and use it at least twice a day (morning and evening). Last year I had a bad SBurn. Right after the Aloe Vera gel I use a Lubriderm lotion. Don't rub it, be gentle. Also, don't expose yourself to the sun and use light cotton cloth. Avoid detergent or use a natural one to avoid any sensitive reaction to the skin. Also, drink vitamin E and break a capsule and mix it with the Lubriderm or Aloe Vera gel. It worked out for me. I know people who had nasty marks after a sun burn like mine. I don't have any!
