    • Use cool cloths on burned areas.
    • Take frequent cool showers or baths.
    • When a first-degree burn or minor second-degree burn is 2 to 3 days old, using the juice from an aloe leaf can help the burn heal and feel better. Applying the aloe juice may sting at first contact.
    • Applying 0.5% hydrocortisone cream to the burned area also may help if your doctor tells you to.


There isn't much you can do to stop skin from peeling after a sunburn-it is part of the healing process. Lotion may help relieve the itching. Other home treatment measures, such as chamomile, may help relieve your sunburn symptoms.

First-degree burns and minor second-degree burns can be painful. Try pain reducers such as Acetaminophen to help relieve your pain after adjusting the dose with your doctor. An antihistamine, such as Benadryl, can also help stop the itching.

It is important to protect a burn while it is healing. Newly healed burns can be sensitive to temperature. Healing burns need to be protected from the cold, because the burned area is more likely to develop frostbite. A newly burned area can sunburn easily. Sunscreen with a high sun protective factor (SPF at least 30) should be used for the first year after a burn to protect the new skin.
