Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello
Thanks for the query,
Sun poisoning is actually dehydration due to excessive heat.
He might have lost lot of water which may lead to tiredness and muscle ache, however sore throat and black urine might not be related to this.
Please meet a doctor and get him investigated.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you.
