    is their a doctor in the house?

    i stupidly fried myself a few days ago and even though ive covered up from the sun since my burns are getting worse

    its starting to bleed a bit now and its all blistered and its not in a very nice place

    Ice could make it worse as sometimes skin can stick to it, which would be most painful! Most after sun is just moisturiser so anything like that should help.

    Not sure other than that.

    Oh, and make sure you drink plenty of water as you will probably be dehydrated too.

    lol...you would not beleive how many times i have been told to drink more water this week!! im living with a water addict

    thing is the only time i drank water by itself was after being sick off pills so now just drinking water is enough to make me throw up

    *drinks lots of orange juice instead*

    I am a complete water addict. It's the cure for all ills!

    If you can't drink water just make sure you avoid coke, tea and coffee as they will dehydrate you even more in the long run.
