You poor thing! You may already know this, but a soft cool cloth (think tee-shirt like material)soaked in vinegar will draw the fire out of any burn--sunburn, kitchen burn, etc. With a kitchen burn, the vinegar will even prevent a blister. It's amazing! After the treatment of vinegar, follow up with Aloe Vera to soothe. I learned these remedies from my sweet Nanny when I was growing up.
Hey Susan! I actually did pour vinegar over my legs one night and follow up with a cool compress. It did relieve the pain quite a bit. But I hadn't thought of combining the two! Good idea! I'll keep that handy for next time. (Although next time I hope to have more sense and remember sunscreen!)
