Aspirin if you can: Aspirin offers additional relief if you can take it (be certain you do not have an allergy or contraindication). Also see your doctor, sometimes it is necessary to take oral Prednisone if the burn and swelling are severe.

Simple Treatment: Sunburn is response of the tissues to injury from solar radiation. It is inflammation which means increase blood flow to the area to promote healing. Ice as this can injure already injured skin. Cool water soaks can help as can taking anti-inflammation medicines like Motrin or advil (ibuprofen). Avoid any further damage as this can cause scarring . Good skin cream applied daily/gently helps. Elevate the legs.

Aloe: I agree w dr. Miller. Just to let you know - aloe products usually need to contain at least 90% aloe for the aloe to do it's work. Very few products on the market have this concentration. As a result - it is best to have your own aloe plant. Break open the thick leaves and the sap will drip out. Take care.
