Suggest Remedies For Severe Sunburn On Shoulder With A Yellow Skin Patch

Hi, I was just at the beach and I have sunburn all over my shoulders and back that is peeling. On my shoulder there is a spot that is yellow. It isn t peeling or swole or anything, it s just a yellow patch. I was just wondering what this is. It feels the same as the rest of my skin. It is about 3 fingers wide and about a knuckle height. Please explain to me what it is! Thanks a bunch! -Cassidy

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be allergic condition due to son, better to stay away from the sun and Diphenhydramine lotion can be tried, if it fails to response then steroid would be the option like "Mometasone cream" watch for infection, but in my opinion better to see the dermatologist if it is fails to respond hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
