I have persistent burning on my arms from sunburn and i am dehydrated, do need to go to the emergency room?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No broken bones, uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing, chest pain, etc.I don't see the emergency value.You can get comfort using cool compresses and keep hydrated until you can call your doc or visit an urgent care center during regular hours.
