Sunburn.: If the pain is really that bad, and especially if you are starting to notice blisters, you need to be seen right away by a doctor, This suggests that you may have a second degree burn, the depth of which greatly inflames the nerve endings in the skin, causing exquisite pain and sensitivity to touch. I would get to an urgent care center right away.
