Yesterday, my son came home from schoolcamp. He was sunburned over al his back. He said, I only took of my shirt for an hour. Our sun is dangerous in this time of the year. this becouse of the ozon. I just had to do something to help him. He had to lie down on his stummick so I could lay a cold tier on his back. When I looked on him...he had falen a sleep.

Keep him cool with cold wash cloths and put aloe vera on the sunburn. You can also put vinegar on the sunburn which will take out the burning sensation.
I sunburn real easy and those are the things that help me.

He have been home alday, had cold tours on back. It feels better now. But he have hade problems. It probebly will be OK. He is just troubeld, becouse he have been in sun before and never get this. I tryed to explain that he has grown and no longer a child with skin as a kid. That he have to be more careful in years to come. I have to blame my self a bit for not sending any sonoil with him. But this warm and sunny wether took me with suprise.

Make sure that he keeps his fluids up if he can and if he cant make sure that you get medical advice as it can be so dangerous not to
