DO YOU NEED TO 

SEE A DOCTOR 

FOR A SUNBURN 

Even if you regularly apply sunscreen before going outdoors and wear 

protective clothing, all it takes is a little too much time before reapplication 

or one day of forgetting to wear sunscreen to wind up with a nasty sunburn. 

The signs of a sunburn will be evident before the damage fully reveals itself, 

as the burn won’t likely sting, hurt or peel until later. That means that a little 

redness now could be much more painful in a couple hours. If you have a more 

serious sunburn, the pain and swelling may keep you from sitting or lying 

down comfortably and it could have you feeling extra tired and worn down 

after a day in the sun. When a sunburn becomes so painful, you might wonder 

if you need to see a doctor to treat your skin. 

Signs of Severe Damage 

While most sunburns can be treated with at-home care, it is necessary to see a 

doctor if the burn is more severe. Like any severe burns, excessive sunburn can 

cause damage to the deeper layers of the skin and dramatically raise the risk of 

infection, due to open sores and blisters. Let’s look at some signs you should 

bring to the attention of a doctor if you have a sunburn: 

Blisters - Small blisters are no need for alarm - though they do indicate that 

you’ve gotten more severe sun damage and should take extra steps to stay 

covered until the skin heals. When you have more than 20% coverage of 

blisters, however, you will want to head to an urgent care facility or ER for burn 

treatment. 

Chills or fever - Chills or a high fever, especially in children affected by 

sunburns, can be a sign of overexposure and heat illness and they might also 

indicate infection. The body will raise its temperature to fight off infection, 

so a fever accompanied by open blisters should not be left to chance without 

medical care. 

Wooziness - Dizziness and wooziness are signs that a sunburn is more serious 

and that the sun has taken its toll. 

First Aid for Your Sunburn 

One mistake that people often make is assuming that once a burn shows 

up, the damage is done, so it’s safe to stay out in the sun. The truth is that 

a sunburn will continue getting worse as long as you remain exposed. In 

fact, damage may accelerate, because the skin has already sustained harm. 

If possible, get out of the sun as soon as you see any redness or tenderness 

develop. If you cannot retreat indoors or to the shade, put on more sunscreen 

and cover up with a hat and more clothing. 

You may notice that a sunburn continues to feel worse even after you get out 

of the sun. Cooling the skin down with a cool shower or bath can offer some 

instant relief and over-the-counter NSAIDs like ibuprofen and Tylenol will 

reduce swelling and pain over a longer period. After a shower, apply some aloe 

or soothing lotion - those containing oatmeal can further reduce redness and 

irritation on the skin. 

What’s the Damage? 

Even a very painful sunburn will feel mostly better within a week or so, which 

might lead you to wonder if a sunburn is even that bad. What you must consider 

is the lingering after effects of sun damage, which can include cell damage that 

leads to premature aging, skin cancer and a rough, leathery appearance of the 

skin later in life. One sunburn is not likely to leave a substantial mark in the 

long-term, but repeated damage can have lifelong effects.

FOSTER CHILDREN: PREPARATION 

FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)

how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month. 

Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help 

prepare for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long 

course culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council 

for Jewish Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s 

BizTown, using computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses.

foster families. Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep, 

foster families socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include 

the animal in your daily home life inside your home. Get to know them as 

individuals so you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, anecdotes. 

Treat the animal like your own and train him/her, if possible. 

Although you may feel sadness when your foster animal is adopted, please know 

that your efforts helped to prepare the cat or dog for his/her forever home.

Gardening Tips 

for July 

• Plant fall flowering annuals where your spring annuals 

have bloomed out. Plant seeds like zinnia, marigold, 

cosmos, petunia and portulaca so you’ll have color until 

frost. Don’t let seedlings dry out. 

• In summer, prune roses to keep them in shape. 

Continue black spot and insect treatments. Water 2” 

once per week. 

• Remove spent crepe myrtle flowers to prolong bloom 

production. 

• Weeds rob plants of valuable water, nutrients--remove 

them. 

• Great sun/heat-lovers include coral honeysuckle, 

coreopsis, lantana, oleanders and hamelia. 

• Fertilize flowers lightly, if at all; too hot for heavy 

feedings. 

• Water your lawn longer but less frequent. Deep water 

of about 2 - 3” per week forces plant roots to grow down, 

instead of sideways into sunbaked upper soil levels. Use 

a bowl in your yard to measure during waterings.
