How To Treat Pain Behind My Knees Due To Sunburn?

I recently went to the beach and got badly sunburn on the back of my legs. I was badly burned in the cracks of both legs located in the back of the knees. The pain has gone away but three days later I am now noticing brown patches starting to appear. Do you have an answer on what this might be?
