I got a sunburn on my head yesterday, and today the left side of my forehead was swollen and has been all day. I have taken advil and also put cold compresses. I feel relatively weaker than usual and heavy. Any ideas to what happened and what i can do? Thanks !

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to the sunburn. I suggest using anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen. I also suggest to use Calamine lotion for local application and take cool showers.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
