Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Forehead
Why do I not see symptoms of Sun poisoning as I know it? Back about 15 years ago I was in the sun a whole weekend. Upon arrival home, I fell asleep for a short while and woke with a swollen forehead. After a visit to the emergency room, I was told I had sun poisoning. The swelling moved down my face as time went on. Was this sun poisoning or something else?

- Severe sunburn

- Nausea
In this case it is recommended to do frequent cool showers and take Pedialyte solution to prevent dehydration.
