How To Clear Blisters On Chest Due To Sunburn?

I recently got sunburnt and found blisters on my chest, I wasn t sure what they were but they popped in my sleep and when I woke up my chest was oozing clear liquid. I wasn t quite sure what it was but I put neosporin on it and now it is completely scabbed over, but the scab is yellow. Is this normal? What can I do to get it to go away?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you are having skin infection or allergy.
But since the blisters were ruptured and produced yellow scab, this suggest healing.
Within 2-3 days this will completely remove and become normal skin.
So no need to worry much as blisters are healing only. They will soon be disappear.
Continue neosporin.
