What should I do if my skin gets sunburned and blisters form?

Avoid further sun exposure and take sun protection measures. Small blisters can be left to absorb on their own; keep the skin dry and clean. If blisters are large or cause severe pain, seek medical attention promptly—doctors may recommend topical anti-inflammatory ointments or cold compresses. Most importantly, prevent sunburn by applying sunscreen, wearing hats, and using umbrellas when outdoors. Protect your skin and stay safe from sunburn.
