    Prevention is the best treatment. But if you really need to treat a sun burn: Ice packs, cool water showers and special cooling gels are available at your local pharmacy. All of these work!

I always used vinegar to soothe the pain.  Depends really how how severe the sunburn is.  Why can't you use some good suncreen?

STAY OUT OF THE SUN
But if necessary - I use aloe to sooth my skin.

Aloe is best, especially if you can get it directly from the plant. But the gel in a bottle works well too. We like to keep the bottle in the frig. Very cooling!

I can no longer sit out in the sun because of the beta blocker that I am on, I can dehydrate really quick. As far as the sunburns as far back as I can remember I am allergic to different suncreens d lotions. I break out in hives.
