The best ways to treat sunburn this summer - from teabags to yoghurt
In extreme cases it might blister and peel, which can be extremely painful.
Though these lotions or gels can help repair the skin after sun damage, they cannot repair the damage caused to your cells.2. Cool it downA cold compress, ice pack, cold shower or cold bath can all help soothe your skin. It's not entirely clear why that is, but it is likely down to the fact that it has a higher pH level, so it can be used to soothe heat.Again, you don't need to drink it but rather use a cold teabag or freshly brewed tea - allowed to cool obviously - on your skin.
Once the milk has soaked into the cloth and they are both cold, take it out and press the flannel into your sunburnt skin.You can take ibuprofen and paracetamol to ease the pain of sunburn.
