What Actually Happens When You Get a Sunburn
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2021
- It's summertime, and after a year of being locked up in quarantine it's time to step outside (safely) and get some ultraviolet rays of sunshine. But before you go soaking up that sun you'd better get that sunscreen on, because otherwise your skin will literally burn, and the damage that can be caused by a sunburn can actually be serious. Find out what sunburns really are doing to your skin right now!

The most metal description of what sunburn is I've heard was "Sunburn is basically your cells commiting suicide before turning cancerous because of radiation damage"
my goodness, that's underrated

I had a HECK of a sunburn when I went to Louisiana and just spent 15 minutes outside relaxing. I was in bed, unable to move for 3 days taking Ibuprofen 600s as often as medically recommended.
15 minutes? holy f.
i had one after 8 hours on a lake.
very silly
have u ever been outside before
@@patrickoconnor6514 Yup, I'm just white as a snowflake (part Polish)
@@sadalien9049 I’m mostly Polish and I’ve never been sunburnt more than a little red nose and I was on the beach for 6+ hours a day for almost a week, must be blessed 😂 stay safe man
@@justinpyle3415 try having low melanin
Just got back from the beach with the worst sunburn I’ve ever had. Took a shower and nearly blacked out from the pain several times. It was like bathing in acid.
That sounds like a bit of a stretch.
@@Itsnoahscott it was second degree burns; and showering right after it really does feel like an acid bath.
Same bro and I can confirm that u are not overreacting
@@Itsnoahscott you risked Cancer, are you good ? 😳
Im not alone . the problem is my skin starting to make yellow bubbles instantly. Sadly, after more than a week with my skin still burning, my parents realised I wasn't overreacting, and they took me to a doctor, and now im getting better with medicaments

I remember in 5th grade we went to a water park and I got a sunburn that covered my entire back I have always worn a shirt to go swimming since :EDIT: I Was wearing sunscreen I just have sensitive skin also to those calling me fat atleast I can accept my body image unlike you maybe if you had the body of a goddess as you think you wouldn't feel so self conscious and feel the need to make fun of some random guy on the internet
Just wear sunscreen
No need to wear a shirt
@@BatMuncher not that easy
Same that happened to my shoulders a couple years ago and they started peeling and turned super red
@@klingenschmidt9261 wearing sunscreen is hard?
When I was a kid, I was laying on my stomach at a community pool, I got a sunburn on back. It was a mild, but OUCHIE!!!
Me : watching this
Also : being black (dark skin), therefore never got sunburned in my entire life
Same
We are the true people
Bruh 😎😂
you get sunburn too, you just might not notice it as much
love the flatbush zombies profile pic
I love being black, the sun is getting hotter.💯🤴🏾
ok
Same bro
You still get skin damage and increased risk of cancer regardless of skin color
The black in you won’t get red but u bet if you turn your hands palm side up and leave em there for a bit theyll get red 😂 only thing white in y’all is... well your palms, teeth and whites in your eyes not saying that being black is bad just saying that.
My guy I feel ya my freinds and I went to the beach and I was the only one not to get burned lol
This is why I stay inside all day
True that
Same
That's just because you're afraid of your own shadow.
HOI4 Discord mod moment
But you need that natural vitamin D!
The one thing that I remember from my health class in high school was a video describing this in horrifying detail. Basically made it seem like any sun exposure at all immediately started the cancer clock and that melanoma was imminent and inevitable. Freaked me out lol
💀💀💀
That's why I stay inside
my doctor always told
me that skin cancer isn’t “if”, it’s “when”
Same I was told that back in middle school and it scared me cause I got a sunburn on my face today and it was not even hot outside lol
I'm using this moment to say I'm proudly black ✊🏿Melanie doesn't get sun burns
I'm so thankful for my melanin.
That thumbnail is INTENSE!! Felt that pain before 😂
Fun fact: After bathing in a river, elephants often indulge in a mud bath to form a protective layer on their skin which prevents sunburn. So have a mud bath :)
I do sand baths to get to same affects
It also protects them from insect bites.
That’s technically the accepted hypothesis for how humans turned “white”.
@@markjuarez6469 it’s because they moved north to places with low sunlight and colder temperatures, so the skin needs to be more efficient at gathering vitamin D
Thx 4 sharing. Plz make alot more like this. ❤❤
Great explanation
Thank you 👌
I literally just got back from corfu and i look like a freakin ball of red, how i wish this video was released sooner

Wait if sunburns are radiation burns, does that mean that the extreme sickness people feel when they have sun poisoning is a mild form a radiation poisoning?
I don’t know about that cause i got the melanin update

I’ve only ever had a sunburn once or twice. The second time was a tiny one on my shoulders, but the first one was crazy! I was on vacation in Mexico as a kid, and it’s very hot there. We wore tank tops/shorts and other similar clothing, so our skin was exposed. Even though we kept swimming around in the outdoor pool, most of us were still very warm. Eventually, I jumped into the pool and submerged my shoulders aND IT BURNED. I remember freaking out and finding out I had gotten a sunburn on my shoulders and it was surprisingly painful
Did u get any marks over shoulders? I got some and not sure hiw to fix it !!
did your skin ever go back to its natural color?
@@Crazycrazymom Yeah of course, it was a mild sunburn. It just turns red then peels off after a few days
Being in the water can magnify the UV rays (so I’ve heard).
Your video on sunburn is very interesting and informative.
I know that as skin heals from the sunburn, it also peels off and it can itch. You can try a medicated skin cream so help cool the sunburned skin down. But I agree with the sunblock.🤔
Yes please do a video on that "topic for another video" 🙏
I feel like this doesn’t happen enough so I’m gonna say thank you narrator and animator! Y’all do a great job if it’s 2 different people…. We’ll never know
The infographics show is many different people, thanks to the narrator and animator what about writers and whoever is doing all the research
Iv had 3rd degree burns from a sunburn and it was one of the worst pains IV been through blister and boils that covered my entire back
Very important to use sun screen

Is so good
I needed this 3 weeks ago
THE TIMING OF THIS VIDEO?? I GOT A SUNBURN TODAY 😭😭
lol
With growing up in the Florida keys, I had relatives constantly in the sun getting sunburned as it was a normal occurances but also skin cancer that reduces your life by years and this occured to several relatives much like many of your families. Later in life, I can't take the heat yet still live in Florida. I want to move to a colder climate but own way to much and our economy is just not great at the moment to sell off.
You don't own anything, you just think you own, this world was here long before you, and it'll be here long after you radioactively decay. Sunburn happens everywhere on the planet. You can go back to the caucus mountains and still die from radiation poisoning. You can't hide from the sun. Lack of sunlight is a death sentence. What you need is carbon 14. It's all around you, yet you lack it. It's like being on a boat in the middle of the ocean and dying of thirst. Water is all around you yet you can't take advantage of it. Your whole world is made up of Carbon. Everything from your phone to your clothes, but you can't take advantage of it.
This is gonna be helpful
Just had a holiday. Leaving today😂 Thanks for the info👍🏻😅
Sunburn caused me a 2nd degree. I stayed at hospital for 5 days. My shoulders was full of blisters. My legs was hurting so bad that I couldn’t walk.
I went to pool with my friends for 8 hours without an umbrella and with a wrong sun cream.
The doctors started peeling off my skin(removing the blisters) and it was very hurtful. They recommended me some creams to use after the sunburn in body (dermasin, cicatridine).
I recommend everybody: dont go to pool or beach without a best sun cream, especially when you have a soft skin.
why did the doctors remove the blisters? I thought it was the body's way of protecting your skin and letting it heal
You can get sunburned on cloudy or foggy days also - I've been out on the water all day surfing before in thick foggy weather and went home with a nice red hue.
Perfect timing, I just got back from a vacation to Santa Monica where I got a sunburn on the beach. I also must've got exposed to other forms of germs from the ocean which caused my me to be sick for the next few days.
Fantastic video
Looking at your weather app to see the UV Index helps to know your chances of burning too
I went to a completely sunny beach once after 4 PM and saw the UV Index was a 3 so I knew I was going to be okay without the sunscreen I didn’t have. And yeah I stayed all the way through sunset and I wasn’t even red
I fell asleep face-down in the sun when I was 10 and got second-degree burns. 17 years later, I'd had three skin tumors removed from my shoulder, back and calf. Solar damage is NOT a joke, especially if you're fair skinned.
Jeeez thats tough
Do you mean Caucasian? Because I'm fair skinned and the sun just gives me energy, information, and guidance. Never poison.
Scp 001-when the day breaks in a nutshell
*angry flesh noises*
Hahaha i knew someone would say something about WDB with the thumbnail looking like the man is melting to the sun. Problem being thats only half of the SCP, the other half being that the melted one are still alive and forces/"highly encourage" the other to take a bit too much sun for their skin
Just got one and was curious
I lived through this most of my life. Drink A LOT of WATER! take max strength Tylenol at recommended max doses. And take Benedryl at max doses because that stops the dreaded Devil's Itch! Stay cool, rest, and ride it out my friends!
As someone who drink a gallon a day during the summer and has gotten a third-degree sunburn at Daytona Beach in Florida all I can say is you are wrong good sir
@@swaswa1 you arent taking into account the colors and how those effect the heat and what it absorbs.
@ErrorNixFound hands down the most unbearable pain I’ve felt, and I’ve broken a few bones. Had me throwing up and itching at my legs for hours. I’ll never forget sun screen again after that lol
The Devils Itch is the worst thing ever. Like being wrapped in fiberglass insulation and poked with hot needles.
I was once outside with my back facing the sun for 6 hours. My skin peeled in very thick layers, and there was no hair on my upper arms up until about 3 years ago, and I got the sunburn 5 years ago
breh
It's been awhile since I got bad sun burned and I remember it was quite terrible. Yeps...many cells were destroyed that day. If I could just get my hubby to use the lotion. Hopefully this video helps since I made him listened. Thanks 👍
My Grandma died to breath cancer, which developed from skin cancer, she didn't let me see her when it started, and her funeral was closed casket because she didn't want us to see what happened to her, and what the doctors had to do, I lost the last 7 months of her life due to her cancer, please stay safe when your outside, don't let what happened to her happen to you. She was 58 at the time, she died in 2011.
Let’s be honest, none of us watching shorts on RUclips are really getting super sunburned.
😂👏👍
That sentence is confusing bruh
Very important note: take vitamin zinc and vitamin e to help to repair the cells
actually
Glad I don't have to deal with that💪🏿
This is good information after summer just ended and we are back to school/work and not on a beach anymore.

I’m black, never worn sunscreen in my life, never been sunburned either.
It was always awkward being the only person not burnt when I'd go to the beach with my friends
Same
I love these videos
Will you post more heist vids please, I find them really interesting.
Summer in Australia is just different
I remember going to the beach with my white friends. When we came back they was ALL sunburned while using sunscreen. I didn't use sunscreen at all and I was fine 🤷🏿♂️
Can infographics do a video about that?
@djayy00 i want the science. Not the basic stuff. Everyone knows why sunburns happens but they explained the science
I just got over a really bad sunburn from 4th of July, like a month late but appreciated
I once forgot to apply sunscreen to my legs before going to the beach, only realized after a couple of hours. At first it didn't seem that bad, my skin was just a little red...
Then I woke up the next day with tennis-ball blisters on my legs. That was one of the most painful mistakes I've made. Weeks of excruciating pain everytime I had to move my legs, Tylenol and Codeine barely contained it.
Never ever forget to apply sunscreen to all parts of your skin that are going to be exposed to the sun.
Lol makes this video when summer is ending 😭
love the channel though I’m subbed
Ending? Not really at least hear wise. I live in Las Vegas and we wint see the end of triple digit temps until late september at the earliest.
@@CONSOLETRUTH2 it’s always hot out there I was kinda going based off that school Starts next week
I got a sunburn that made my back so itchy it brought me to my knees… I thought I was going to die. My mom just laughed at me as I was on complete agony, still haven’t forgave her for that 😂.
Hey can you guys do a video on ulcers!!?
I’m white like Casper and always wear sunscreen with a mix of bronzer to help me try to get a tan. I’m slowly taking in about 10 minutes each side and go back inside over a few days so far I’m getting some color
I need sun for my melanin because I'm a sun God 😹😹🤞
*stares in someone with melanin*
People with lighter skin have melanin.Pheomelanin, whilst Dark skinned people have Eumelanin.
Right, this is all so fascinating to me. I remember when i was a kid i would try to get sunburnt because all my friends did and i was confused as to why it never happened to me. Never worked lol even when i went to the Philippines and Australia.
Helps me out so I can prevent another second degree sunburn.
Swear this narrator is the best part of this channel. Perfect voice for it
I had sun poisioning once when I was 11 I think. I remember every waking moment. Never again...
So glad I’ve never had to worry about this 😌
lol
@Snorri Sturluson I see you going on comments with the damage control.. you feel some type of way.
@Snorri Sturluson Then the comments are bringing out your inner reflection. Move on and stop dwelling.
I got sun poisoning once when I was a teenager. Was on acne medication and went to the beach shirtless for a day. The medication makes your skin super sensitive, and I was an idiot and didnt wear any sunscreen. All I could do for the next week was stand under a cold shower and try not to cry. It was extremely painful. All the Dr could do was give me some medicated cream. Still have scars on my back from it, and Im 36 now. I still spend a lot of time outdoors fishing, but I use UPF clothing to keep the sun off of me
Silver Sulfadiazine Cream works wonders for burns of any kind. Seriously. I had terrible burns and huge blisters on my arms from intense heat around me at work and when I went to the doctor, he gave me this cream and it worked amazingly well.
The sun is still a deadly laser
Underrated comment
Although there's a blanket
All depends on who the sun is beaming on
Especially to me since I'm pretty much a vampire.
I’m so unlucky to be allergic to sunscreen 😭✋
💀💀💀
Mineral, and non mineral?
well it’s fine since there’s a dangerous chemical in the sunscreen that can cause cancer if it gets infected in you
Wait what oh no !😢 ☹🙁😟😱
@@logangster0 that’s a myth. There’s no evidence to link sunscreen and cancer.
I was in Charleston and got sunburn! And was curious about how and how the body heals the sunburn
Great timing I’m on vacation in Florida
This was very informative, thanks. But could explain HOW sunblock works? I never understood how a transparent cream that disappears as you rub it in protects you. Clothing and shade is obvious.
That cream is absorbed into the skin and since it stays at basically the surface it actually blocks UV light which is what we really need to worry about. Think of it as a mirror that bounces dem uv rays away from you.
There are two types of sunscreen. One type actually bounces the uv rays off your body and the other type reacts with them on the surface of your skin so it doesn’t harm you.
I love the little cartoons. They are adorable and somehow I actually learned a lot watching the video. So thanks for the video. Also, side note. Everything I’ve used for sunburn has had some form of aloe or tea tree oil in it ^_^
Carbon is what it's called. It grows naturally in all things that are biologically connected to the planet.
Early thanks for the info
Just a suggestion you should do the diffrent degrees of sunburn. I'm a farmer so naturally I have a farmer tan. I had my shirt off chopping pasture for 7 hours in direct sunlight with no sunscreen and got 2nd degree burns. Not the worst you can get but still a terrible pain
Thus is why I'm glad I'm black
CANT RELATE. I'M DEEPLY MELANINATED.
I've started to use a parasol as well as long clothes and plenty of spf50 sunblock
You need to do one on how sunscreen works
So basically the ozone layer is being severely damaged and we’ll feel the after effects soon!

Me who has one right now: PAIN
I concur
lol
Felt that
When are we going to get an infographics episode on how infographics episodes are made 🙏🏼
lol the repair proteins are so cute
As a black person i can’t relate but I can relate to extra dry skin
Also a factor is the amount of melanin created by your melanocytes cells. People that have more melanin have darker skin color. A person with black or brown colored skin more resilient against suburn than a person with white colored skin being that there is more melanin in the person with black or brown colored skin.
Melanin also effects light which enters into a person's eyes. People that have brown or hazel colored eyes have more melanin so the luminosity of the light is less than a person with blue or green eyes who lack melanin in their eyes. So let's say at night the bright headlights of a vehicle would cause less issues with a person with brown colored eyes than with a person with blue colored eyes. But with a lower amount of light a person with blue eyes would be able to see more clearly than a person with brown colored eyes in which their vision would be darker.
The reason why people have a variety of colors of skin and eye colors is the result of migration and evolution.
Cool, I guess..
Actually, it's not the fact that darker skinned people have more melanin then their lighter counter-parts, but it's a whole different melanin all together. What darker people produce is Eumelanin, which is carbon based. Lighter people have what is called pheomelanin and this is sulfuric based.
I'm double cursed because I have light skin and blue eyes. I especially hate having blue eyes because they are so sensitive to light. There are no advantages to having blue eyes. Being born with them is just a huge misfortune.
I have learned more from the this channel then i ever have in school
Just went on a senior trip to Hawaii and totally underestimated the strength of the sun.
I'm glad that I am a person of color, because the sun 🌞 loves me,actually gives me vitamin D which this video neglected to mention 😄
Gives everyone vitamin d. The lighter your skin the more vitamin d you get.
It's one of the theories on why lighter skins exist: an adaptation to lower UV levels in more northern climates.
It's a shame that the tradeoff for that is to suffer agonising pain if exposed for too long in higher UV areas...
@@threetunes7810 are u crazy 😜 if u don't have melanin then you get no vitamin D from the Sun
@@coreybrown1077 eerrr no.
Melanin absorbs UV but the thing in the skin that produces vitamin D when it absorbs UV is dehydrocholesterol.
Melanin, while protecting against UV induced damage, actually inhibits vitamin D production because it's blocking UV from getting to other things.
People with extremely high levels of melanin are actually the ones who get almost no vitamin D from the sun, but they also suffer very little skin damage from the sun so it's a tradeoff.
Don't just take my word for it though, go look it. Google relationship between vitamin D and melanin.
@@threetunes7810 u can errr no all u want...all I know is I never had or will need sun block, and I stay in the sun all day everyday
@@coreybrown1077 Sort of besides the point, but sure
who goes outside sounds like a daft idea
You also have a histamine reaction. Taking antihistamines will help. As a person with naturally honey colored skin it's good to remind: just because you are RESISTANT doesn't mean immune
Can you do a video on why some people have more showing veins like vascular than others ? 🤔

I’m mixed, black and white, but I have really light skin. Every year in the winter my skin is rather light toned, but every summer, given I’ve been outside in the sun enough times, my skin gets as dark as some black people I know. Right now my skin is as dark as my caramel colored girlfriend. No sunburns this year tho! Feeling pretty good about that!
Nice video! I just have one question which doesnt seem to be answered in it - what about the skin flaking after few days when the sunburn occur? What causes it?
Hi marks. Well it is dead skin so when new skin replaces it you shed the old skin. sort of like a snake or a spider shedding it's old skin. I have sunburn now.
I found the perfect video for my dad
I just got super sunburn at the beach this is PERFECT
I hate sunburn
The timing of this video was perfect for you lol
After watching the video I will put on double next time
A while ago I went on holiday and was out in the beating hot Australian sun in the middle of summer swimming 2 days in a row, without a shirt. And to make it worse, I have really sensitive and fair skin. You can imagine how the skin on my back and shoulders was pretty much destroyed. Also, when I was young I use to get sunburn all the time, especially on my face. As a result I had many many freckles, but fortunately I have been very careful since then and the freckles have almost faded completely, which is a good sign that my face has not been severely burnt in a long time. Ever since I first became aware of the consequences of being burnt all the time, I have had a big paranoia of skin cancer. And this video certainly didn't help the paranoia lol.
I guees skin cancer is not that common when you get sunburns (im only watching this video becouse i got sunburns on my back shoulders and face this video scared my a bit)
As an Australian, Australia sun = BRUTAL
did your skin went back to its natural color?
I had a bad sunburn all over my body when I went to the beach. I found a brand of sunscreen that comes in 110 SPF. I'll be using that from now on.
Here in Australia, the minimum is SPF 50, I didn't even know lower than 30 exists
anything over 30-50spf isnt any more effective tbh
@@Thetechnolady007 Yes it is especially for people that are suuuuuuuuper white or have albinism
As a very very dark skinned black man im happy this will probably never happen to men!😁
Sorry to disappoint, but it’s the complete opposite as the darker tones absorb the sunlight more and will create sunburns, even if your skin is naturally very dark. Also you meant to say me not “men”.
