Okay... So I haven't been around here a lot... hope you all still remember me, lmao.
Anyway, I was up north this past weekend and silly me, I forgot sunscreen because it really wasn't that warm out, but the sun was still out. (And before anyone says ANYTHING, I know, I should have put it on because you can still get burned, but it just slipped my mind. My fault. :p )
But anyway, I burned my chest and even the top of my... yeah. (PS-- Getting sunburned... there... is THEE worst place to get burned.) It started peeling this morning and I showered and it just hurt SOOO BAD. I was almost in tears whenever water OR soap touched my burn. Tonight, it feels awful. The places where the skin had peeled feels scaley and hurts like CRAP and it almost pains me to move, just because of where the burn is. I've never felt such pain before. It hurts to wear a t-shirt because it covers the burn and touching the burn makes it hurt. I'm almost constantly in a tank top to avoid clothing touching the burn and then I get weird looks from EVERYONE because of my awful sunburn.
Is there anything I can do? Can someone maybe explain why this burn hurts sooo much and why it's scaley to the touch? I know it's gross, it just hurts SOO bad. It almost seems as if the skin that peeled came off too soon or something... it is just a constant STINGING feeling on my chest ALL day.
:(
Someone help my pitiful self, lmao.
