Home treatment may give some relief. Use cool cloths on sunburnt areas and take frequent cool showers or baths. Apply soothing lotions that contain aloe vera to sunburnt areas. Topical steroids may also help with sunburn pain and swelling. Note: do not use the cream on children younger than 2 unless your doctor tells you to. Do not use in the rectal or vaginal area in children younger than age 12 unless your doctor advises.
