Should I Meet Doctor For Sunburn And Yellow Liquid Leakage?
Hello i had a question about sunburn. I am currently at the beach and i got sunburn on my scalp (very short hair) and it is leaking a yellowish liquid. I wanted to know if i should see a doctor quick or just treat it myself. It does not hurt a lot but i can feel it

Hi...thanks for sharing your problem here in this forum..
You got sunburn but its good that its not that much sever to see a doctor...i will advise you to take bath with some medicated shampo having soothing effect...also you can use antiallergic like fexet in case there is itch..and some anti inflammatory like ibuprofen...do cover your scalp to prevent ot from furthur damage....do use sunblock as you are prone to sunburn..hope you will be alright in a week...thanks
