Sunburn blisters: The best thing to do, is leave them alone. If the blisters are numerous, it is a good idea to see your physician for specific care instructions.

Keep sunburn cool w: Moist cool/cold compresses. Avoid alcohol containing products. Break off pieces of aloe vera plant & apply sap to skin. Consider NSAID meds to reduce pain. Don’t yank off peeling skin or burst blisters. Seek med care for severe pain, fever, lack of improvement of sxs within several days or if a large surface area is blistered. Blisters that have pus, are red, hot, painful - may be infected.
