A member asked:
I was in the sun for 20 minutes in uv 4 and then back out again in uv 3 without suncream for 15 minutes. is the guidance for 15 minutes unprotected sun exposure a day the total amount per day or per exposure? i didnt burn.

Per day: Depends on ur complexion. For dark skinned: 50-60 min/day. For fair skinned: 10-12 min/day. U need sun exposure to increase ur levels of Vit D, but too much increases the risk of skin cancer and aging.

I was out the sun in UV level of 6/7 in shade for some of the time but out for more than 2 hours without reapplying suncream but wearing factor 50. I felt my neck burning but no visible burn and fair skinned. Is this damaging if I dont burn?
How long can you go without suncream in uv 4 if it takes 45 minutes to burn? Is it still 20 minutes?
How long can you be in UV 3 without sun protection? Is 30 minutes a safe compromise between adequate vitamin D levels and too much sun exposure? I didn't burn but I read it's still harmful to have too much sun exposure even without burning.
If careful thereafter, would a blistering sunburn in UV 11 or accumulative moderate sun exposure over a persons life time be worse? Ive read its the UV exposure associated with the burn not the burn itself that is harmful?
I had unprotected oral sex three months ago. I have a swollen white tongue. Tip of tongue burns. Itchy bumps on face. Is this hiv or other std?
