My forehead is very swollen from sun?

Question

I was canoing and c**p out on the water for like 6 hours 2 days in a row with no hat on and I have a number 1 hair cut, my head burned real bad from sun burn and and after 2 days now its just swollen but doesnt hurt, my forehead is seriously 3x swollen its normal size, could I have been bitten by a bug while camping or is this just from a bad sunburn??

Answer 1

Use some Ibuprofen and put some cool wet cloths on your forehead. You might also want to try some aloe vera gel. If the swelling is still here tomorrow, you should see a doctor...otherwise he could end up near scarring from the burn.

Good luck!

Also use ice pack - 15 minutes only at a time. Taking Ibuprofen (alleve, motrin, naproxen) which is an anti-immflamatory will backing unless you are allergic to those or have stomach ulcer, then a moment ago tylenol will help.
