Is there a good way for me to take care of my sunburn blisters?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sunburn is a burn: Treat it like a regular burn. Put a lot of moisturizer on it. Cerave or aveeno are good brands. Do not pop open any blisters. If a blister opens up then apply an antibiotic cream to it several times a day. Avoid sun till you are completely healed. Wash your hands and maintain strict hygiene. If healing is slow you might need silvadene (silver sulfadiazine) ointment which is by prescription.
