Suggest Treatment For Sun Burn And Skin Peeling

I went to the beach the first time this summer. I m originally raised in Florida but lived in Virginia for three years. Every summer I come to Florida. I wanted to get a nice tan so I got tanning spray which is only SPF 4. I spent about three hours at the beach and didn t reapply at all. That caused me of course to get sunburnt. The sunburn is now starting to peel but under the peeled skin looks raw and red. I think it may be another layer of burnt skin. My question is how do I treat this issue? Any advise?

Well come to HCM
First thing which is very important and that is stop going in the sun and second treat the condition with Silversulfadizine cream and oral anti-biotic and the best option is Tab Cefdinire 300 mg twice in day for five days hope this helps
