Video Transcript

So now, Dr. Jewell is going to address the issue a little bit about when we're out in the sun and we're feeling our skin getting hot and it's about to turn into a sunburn. Of course, prevention is the way to go, but sometimes we do go out in the sun and we forget or we get sunburned. There are several products out there or several things that you can do to help the sunburns. Also, you need to notice the level of sunburn because there's third degree burning, second degree burning. Third degree burning is the worst and that's when you go straight to the ER. First degree burning is what most people experience from sun tanning too long. If you feel that your skin...First of all, you notice that it's red. It’s little bit painful. There are several products out there. I recommend getting products that has aloe vera. Here I've got a product that's aloe vera gel. You can get cream, you can get sprays, different formulas that you can buy. Aloe vera has a cooling affect. Kind of menthol, eucalyptus kind of effect. Nili if you want to try some. What you do is you just put it over the areas that you feel is getting burned or is burned. It has that sort of cooling effect. Is it important to find one with a low alcohol level? Yes, especially if you have dry skin because alcohol is going to dry your skin even more. So it has a low alcohol content or no alcohol content that would be better. I know there are also organic shops where you can buy organic made products. This feels nice. It feels good doesn't it? Very good. Very cooling. It's only temporary. Will it stop the sunburn from progressing? No, the only way you're going to stop the sunburn from progressing is if you get out of the sun. This is only going to eliminate that temporary feeling of pain. Great. The other important thing is that when you know that you have a sunburn, no matter the degree of sunburn, you need hydrate yourself. Out in the sun you are always perspiring and you're losing a lot of water so you need to always drink lots and lots of water. Take lots of water with you to the beach, especially if you know you have experienced sunburn then you drink lots of water to hydrate yourself and hydrate your body. Very important. Yes, that's real important.
