Brief Answer:
Use cortisone cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Sun burn is a type of allergy.
I treat such cases with a mild topical steroid cream like cortisone to be applied twice daily for a week.
It is safe and effective and usually available over the counter.
You can try this.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
