What is sun poisoning?
Sun burns and sun poisoning are virtually the same thing. Both of them occur when you’ve had prolonged exposure to UV rays resulting in a burn. The difference is what is accompanied by that burn.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, it may be sun poisoning and you should go to the hospital immediately to lower your chances of further complications.
1. Nausea/vomiting
2. Fever/chills
3. Headaches
4. Dizziness
5. Dehydration
6. Confusion
7. Rapid pulse
Whether you believe the sun is healthy or not, there is a limit to where you put yourself at risk for major health complications.

I’m a ginger in as a kid I had a burn like this at least once a summer. I have scars on my chest from a really bad sunburn and the blisters when I was about 13.
There's a reason sunscreens sold/made in Australia have such vigorously high standards to meet.
We have the best in the world
They essentially took the best sunscreen policies all over the world and slapped it as our own. All sunscreens in market are broad spectrum and don’t degrade over time as quickly
I literally only buy Australian susnscreen brands 😂😂😂
probs why the indigenous people
are so melanated.
I'm Asian, so I covered up. 😅
And bring umbrella everywhere. Or at least wide brimmed hat.
I lived in Australia for a few years, I don't even remember wearing anything short.
In australia, we almost always wear 50+ sunscreen, nothing weaker
how is the cancer rate?
@@riseevolution reasonably high 💀
Make sure you reapply. People put it on once or twice and say assume that’s enough. Since it’s SPF50 you need to apply every 50 minutes. It’s it’s SPF30 every 30 minutes.
@@Gob_123that's not true. Follow the instructions but use it more often with water or sweat.
@@j.kaimori3848 that is true. That’s why it’s got a number in the SPF cause that’s how often you apply it. Don’t tell me I’m wrong as if it’s not something I study.
She turned into chicharrón
😂😂😂😂
Omg nooo 😂
Hahahaha crispyy
Fr I wanted to eat that
😂 my exact thoughts
As an Aussie, this was a regular part of growing up before skin cancer awareness campaigns really made a societal impact. I can recall the absolutely awful sensation of trying to sleep with the searingly hot burned skin but chills running through my whole body. Slip slop slap seek and slide people.
What is seek and slide? I get the first three
@@ClearlyclynnSeek shade, slide on sunnies. No amount of sunscreen will protect you if you’re out in the blazing sun for hours. Get into the shade and protect those eyes.
@@daisyalice4092 thanks for the explanation! I live in Florida in the US. Only time I don’t have my sunglasses is at night. 😊 before I moved here I couldn’t I understand why everyone wasn’t tanned from being out in the sun all the time. After the first summer, it was blatantly apparent, lol.
@@Clearlyclynn I don’t go anywhere without my sunnies too, even overcast and raining. Just make sure those sunnies are UV protected, otherwise they’re useless!
I ironically spend the most time outdoors in autumn and winter, the sun is far too bitey in summer.
When I was a little kid there was an advertisement for noxema to put it on a bad sun burn to help ease the pain and such maybe next time get some noxema and it'll help..
Got a blistery sunburn right across my nose at summer camp one year 😅. Surprisingly it healed really well though, no scar at all.
I had the same thing when i was 12 in Jamaica. I came back and the crusting from it made my grade 6 teacher very concerned 😭
This happend to me a few years ago lol
Please go get your skin checked..
Get a skin check! You might bot be as lucky as you think you are! 😊
Queenslander here, and yes we have no ozone layer. This was my skin as a child everytime I went in the sun. At 34 I was diagnosed with melanoma and multiple other skin cancers. That was 2.5 years ago and I'm constantly finding new non-melanoma skin cancers every month. Not to mention the fear of another melanoma or missed nodal invasion constantly..
Sun safety, people. For fucks sake. Especially if you have a genetic mutation like I do 👍🏻
Bless you🙏❤️
I am ashamed to say but I have been blistered like this so many times! Please say a prayer for my poor skin!
Oh my goodness don’t be ashamed! I’m so sorry you had to go through that, it looks so painful!
I met a couple who would tan like this almost everyday for a few months in a beach in Mexico. Now 12 years later, they both look like they aged 40 years. Sad.
Me too
Go get checked for skin cancer.
Please go to a dermatologist and have them look at your skin. Bad sunburns can cause skin cancer. If you’ve had many of them, you may not have noticed any serious changes.
Australia has signs up on every corner telling you you should use sunscreen 50+, seek shade, don’t go out mid day in the sun and cover your face etc .
I wish I knew that I was supposed to go to the hospital when I had a bad burn and those symptoms when I was a kid. Thank you for sharing that info. I now wear sunscreen daily. Live and learn
When you land in Oz, buy their sunscreen. Wear it religiously.
I had a sunburn like this when I was 16. Fell asleep in the sun for about 2 hours and then couldn't sit up without getting the spins for about a month after that. Never went to the hospital, but if I lived in a developed nation instead of the USA, I probably would have.
So…it’s the country you reside in who’s at fault and not your own or your parents/guardians for not taking you to the hospital or getting you some aloe. Got it. You’re an entitled liberal. Just say that next time it’ll make more sense🙂👍🏽 bueno suerte 🍀
Same
"a developed nation instead of the USA" 😂 America really is a third world country in a Gucci belt lmfao
u sound ignorant, the US is a fully developed nation 😭stop acting pathetic
@@beetothebop123pls she’s embarrassing 😭😭😭😭
My sister's lips fell off of her face in Sydney. She got a horrible sunburn that scabbed, and then another tourist swung his backpack and accidentally hit her face. Bye bye lips 😢 (she's OK now but it was a terrible time)
I got sun poisoning during vacation once and the worst of the burn was on my back so I was in constant pain while trying to sleep. I cried every night for a week and my whole back was peeling.
The sympathy pain I got from reading this was so violent it made me nauseous 😭 I'm glad she's ok now but that would be traumatic!!
Wdym like lips fell down?
@@deltasilike the skin on her lips was so badly burned that they scabbed over and when the person's backpack came into contact with her face, the scabs fell off and she was left with raw, open wounds that needed to scab over again to heal.
So technically a kiss off huh😉?Sorry for been rude..
Also, NEVER pop the blisters! Can cause infection & scarring). If you know you’ve been badly sunburnt and it is recent (a good guide is that if it is starting to go red that day before sundown), then jump into a completely cold water shower for 20 minutes (it’s a LONG time - put on a timer). This is standard first aid burn treatment and works really well in reducing the severity of the burn.
1. a red sunburn is just a sunburn. all sunburns are red.
2. it needs to be cool water, not cold water. cold water might feel better but it can dry out your skin which will delay healing.
3. cool water won’t reduce the severity of a burn, it will only prevent a burn from worsening
in addition: aloe vera is incredible and should be used multiple times a day. you should also try to avoid excessive sun exposure when you have a sunburn since your skin’s barrier is compromised by the existing burn
Melanoma has entered the chat
“How does this happen”
“Did you wear sunscreen?”
Oh it’s crisp
I had a sunburn like this on a family trip to New Mexico, I couldnt walk for like 4 days 😅
Ugh! That sounds terrible 😢
Yo woman your skin IS crispy✨
After sun aloe gel is a MUST if you get burnt by our southern sun
Yep! As an Aussie, i can confirm that we have no ozone layer and summer looks like this every year 😂
We do have an ozone layer here it’s just thinner - the hole is actually over Antarctica
@@user-pk1wn5hf7jwhy is that? It’s the first time I hear/read about that.
@@PrimoroseIt’s kind of hard to explain but basically the geography of our planet led to the gases that destroy the ozone collecting and lingering mostly above Antarctica, causing a hole. But because of sustainability efforts in recent years, the hole is healing itself.
If only there was some kind of lotion that could block the sun...
To be fair, sunscreens will not stop you from getting this burn even if you are constantly reapplying. Best thing to do is to take breaks/seek shade! 🙌🏼
@MaximumSkin how so? This woman would have definitely avoided that level of burn if she wore SPF50+. If sunscreen didn't work everyone at Australian beaches would look like this and they just don't.
The only time I've seen a sunburn like this was when my ex was playing barefoot bowls on boxing day and forgot to put sunscreen on his feet (but put it everwhere else). we were in the sun for ~2h and his feet ended up blistering so bad they swelled and 2 days later the massive blisters burst with aloe vera jellylike ooze. but nowhere else on his face body was even slightly burnt - and he was wearing a singlet and shorts only. I do agree that covering and avoiding the sun is better, but wearing sunscreens 100% prevent severe blistering sunburn.
Or clothing to add a layer of protection...
@@bisiilki you realize the sun is still a giant burning star shining cancer rays on us? a lotion doesn't completely stop the damage, nor does it stop your body from getting super hot as well.
Omg, the worst! I got sun poisoning in Florida at 17 and had to go to the hospital. It’s a nightmare and the symptoms that go with it it’s horrible
This is why I like Australian sunscreen. That shit WORKS HONEY
Do you have any brands to recommend please ?
@@Nanakimdakweenit depends on your skin type and whether you have any skin conditions. There are high SPF formulations for almost every skin type.
I would be on the ground screaming.
It can be very painful!!
Growing up in California I got really bad sunburns, nothing like this, now I get my sunscreen from Europe, Japan and south Korea. The efficacy of products made there is better than those made in the US. I also wear clothing now that has sun protection. I wish there was lobbying for better sunscreen ingredients!
I would definitely recommend getting Australian screen screen- our shit does work because it has to 😂
I had sun poisoning on vacation once and I just had to go through the rest of the vacation like that.
I had one like that I was 17. Im in my 50's now, my back is full of freckles that may become cancerous in the next years.
i can feel the pain
I had sun poisoning and my parents just treated me like I was crazy. Fun times. 😂
I’ve had this bad of a sunburn a few times. One time notably was bad enough that I now have a permanent change to my skin texture on my shoulders and to cause some nerve damage. Never ever letting that happen again.
Or be me and be forced to shower with literal dish towels draped across my back because my blisters were so large and simply the water running over them made them pop open.. actually horrible and I now wear shirts when I go swimming
I got sun poisoning in Florida when I was teen. My face swelled, I had a fever, it was awful. I am half Irish and I was dating a guy that was Chinese and Italian. I asked to stop at Walgreens because I wanted to get some sunscreen. His dad insisted it was fine and didn’t need sunscreen. That was so painful. We were out on a pier fishing for 18 hours.
How is her upper body ok while her legs look lightly fried? Gee
She probably used sunscreen on her upper body and forgott about her legs 😅
There’s a reason 50+ sunscreen is popular here
I had that sunscreen on my upper chest and shoulders despite liberal chemical sunscreen and frequent shade seeking when I was a teenager. It took MONTHS to heal and It left permanent scaring.
I learned my lesson the hard way only a mineral or a combination sunscreen and it better be 50+. I’m also now seen carrying an umbrella most days with me now despite also wearing UV clothing when possible.
I’m a ginger and decided to go to a pool party the day of a show. (I do theatre) and I got blistering sunburns on my shoulders and back. When I went to the show I wasn’t feeling good and we had no bathroom backstage, so
I went out to the ticket sales and threw up in front of audience members.🥰
You can see it on the back of her hand when she touched her face too!!! Poor girl!! 😭😭😭
Holy shit dude. Yes go to the hospital. Just because the risk of infection is sooooooo high! Oh my god.
I had those symptoms as a kid and never went. I had burns so bad on my shoulders that my skin stuck to my shirt. It was searing pain to just live in my skin and now I have very dark freckles on my shoulders. I wouldn't wish that level of sun damage on anyone.
This girl should go to a Dermatologist rn.
Slip slop slap baby! I’m a Queenslander/ Tasmanian. When I was growing up up north I burnt a lot but never this bad! My poor lil bro had naturally paler skin and once had blisters the size of 20c piece on both his shoulders.
Had sun poisoning in Galveston tx. I was so sick, shivering, teeth chattering, trying not to thow up, hot blisters all over, it was completely awful. However if I would've gone to the hospital with a *sunburn, texas people would've just laughed and rolled their eyes.
Green eyed red head here, when I tell you I would be so f-ing sick.....
I live in SW Kansas and I'm so careful about sunscreening multiple times a day!
As a Aussie of boy does this bring back so many memories of my 32 years on this earth including from my wedding day.
Isn't it called sun stroke?
Because you'll stroke out.
Yea if she strokes out but if she doesn't then it isn't a sun stroke
This is how I get being in the sun for two seconds in the Midwest 💀
my cousin went to florida and fell asleep while tanning… she was in the er for two days, could barely move, and was sick for almost two weeks with that
I’m a strawberry blonde who went to the beach, laid out in the sun all day, and forgot to put any sunscreen on my legs. I’m not exaggerating when I say my legs looked like a shedding snake. I shook all night and the top half of my body was freezing cold and my legs were like radioactive.
Omg she should so go to the hospital, I hope she didn't swim for the rest of her trip 😩
I’m fairly certain she ended up seeing a doctor for iv fluids and is doing well 💙
@@MaximumSkin thank you so much for letting me know because I would've been thinking about that all evening
I made the huge mistake of going on my graduation trip to Mexico… in late July! My first full day there I got burned so badly, nearly my entire body, and my forehead was so bad I could physically move around the entire top layer of crispy skin, that had so much fluid under it. It was gross. I spent the next 2 days of my trip in bed with a fever and vomiting, I felt like I was going to die but it never occurred to me to go to a hospital 😅 I’m so white my late hubby used to tease me that I’m transparent, and although I’d had quite a few burns by that point in my life, that one truly scared me
We tell every tourist to put sunscreen on and they just laugh in our faces…
I’m Australian and I got burnt like this once as a teenager. Never been burned like that again. I learned my lesson. 50+ or I’m not going outside.
Yup. I fell asleep on a pool float... burned my entire front, including my under boob and armpits. Puked for days. Raging fever, pounding headache. Peeled for months. I never lay out in the sun again.
New Zealand and Australia are some of the highest UV index countries in summer and winter. Not the only ones.. but the main culprits for sure.
I burned my lower legs and feet really bad right after graduating college. I went to the Oregon coast with friends to celebrate finishing school, I have a disability and it’s hard to reach my feet and ankles and I didn’t want to ask for help. So I got burned very badly. I woke the morning we left and I knew I was in trouble. But I got no sympathy from my friends. In fact they thought it was funny. So not wanting to make any more of a deal I just got through the ride home and by the evening I had to crawl to my phone and ask my mom to take me to the ER. They were super nice at the ER but there wasn’t a lot they could do. They gave me opioids pain relievers and told me I should stay laying down with my legs elevated. So I had to go stay with my mom and dad. It took 10 days before I could get around very well. I got the huge blisters and when they broke it was like I wet the bed and the sheets needed to be changed. I got the fever, but lucky for me no vomiting, which seems rare with the amount of pain I was in. One friend found out about what happened and sent flowers and an apology.
I had no idea that you should go to the hospital for those symptoms with sun poisoning. I once got it when I was a kid and my parents just had me sleep it off in a dark room. I was throwing up, shaking because I had chills from fever, and I could barely touch anything without severe pain because of how extensively I was burned. The only spot that was not burned was where my swimsuit was. This all occurred because my mother did not "believe in sunscreen", and I am pasty as the driven snow. We were on the beach for 8 hours.
Your parents sound like they sucked! Little kids especially need to be protected.
Lived in Florida for years, but when we first moved there I was only 13 & I didn't realize how badly you can get burned on a dark, really super cloudy day. Went for a walk on the beach & the tops of my feet were so burned, my flip flops wouldn't fit because of the swelling. I had to go to church without shoes on the next day. 😂
Oh my God???? No one around me has ever had sunburns including me perhaps due to having darker skin but now seeing what sunburn looks like for the first time- im going to keep in mind, better safe than sorry cause that looks really painful
this happened to me when i was like 11 at the beach and just never reapplied sunscreen on my face all day and got a nasty burn on my nose and cheeks that literally scabbed over. thankfully it didn’t scar or anything and now i wear sunscreen religiously
This is how my skin looked a lot during my childhood, just a lot more red/ pink because I'm a lot paler than her.
I've gotten a few blistering sunburns. Surprisingly no scarring, but learned the hard way that I need spf 100 ☠️
Live in Australia and had sun poisoning so bad. Vomiting fainting swollen arms and legs and pain to move internally not just the sunburn. Went to hospital and told to go home they don’t treat that type of burn
In Australia you’d sit in the hospital for 8 hours and they’ll send you away with painkillers and aloe. 😂
I had mild sun poisoning one time it blistered me but not enough to go to the er. It got on my shoulders, beneath the left of my eye around my cheek nose area. N a rough sunburn on my chest. But the strange thing is, after it healed I developed eczema, it appeared on my face near my nose(where the burn was). N if I don't keep up with it, it will swell up and flake off and get sore to the touch like eczema would. But after a few days of extra care n some cerave it's gone back to normal! I wonder if it was just a coincidence or if the sun poison may have had an effect on it.
Hmmm… i couldn’t say for sure, but eczema is caused by a mutated gene, so you would have always developed it eventually. Maybe the inflammation from the sunburn triggered your first flare up!
Oooh why do you wear long sleeves and pants??? Its 120 out!! Thats exactly why karen LMAO
Upf rated clothing >>>
I burn like that at least once a year, and I get flu like symptoms for at least three days.
I did go to the hospital a few years ago, based on the recommendation of a youtube guru.
I was shamed, and told its just a sunburn, take some ibuprophen, and cetaphil lotion if the burn becomes itchy. The NURSE rolled her eyes at me when I said I was feeling nauseous and my head was throbbing.
So yeah, go to the hospital if you want, but dont surprised when they make you feel stupid about it.
Oh yeah. I'm Australian and when I travelled to Portugal it was the same temperature but I just.... Didn't burn. It was amazing what an Australian sun routine achieves outside Australia 😂 I was walking around in 40°C heat and the locals kept warning me to be careful of sunstroke and getting burned and I just replied "Isto Australiana" and they would laugh at me and give a thumbs up.
I realised the hard way that sunburn fever is a real fever and sickness. Shits crazy
I got extremely sunburnt during a beach day, chills, fever, headache everything hurt. I probably should have gone to the doctor but I just layed still on my bed naked and covered with tons of aloe and moisturizer. I never felt so awful in my life
Yeah sun poisoning is something I'll never forget. I also scratched my little blisters and so that was regrettable.
I hate seeing her skin like this but i will say im glad the word is spread so those traveling can remember to pack an spf
This is why skin cancer is so prevalent in Aus!
Ooooffff I had that all over my body the first time I went to Florida. We had to sleep with cold wet sheets on our skin and we had fever and chills all night. Should have gone to the hospital.
Omg that’s so scary!! Glad you’re ok!
This was me and my mom when we went to Jamaica for the first time in the middle of the summer for them. Which is where the sun is the closest to the planet. We were blistered after an hour. I remember us in the cruise ship crying our selves to sleep rubbing copious amounts of aloe on each other.
My shoulders burned like that on the last day of school when we spent the day outside. My shoulders went from flawless pale skin to covered in freckles once it healed.
As an Australian I can say I didn't know that there was any weeker sunscreen then SPF 50+ I also thought that the 50+ on the bottle meant anyone over 50 could not wair it
I grew up in florida and a normal Tuesday would make you feel the symptoms of sun poisoning 😅
This should be sign to everyone
PUT👏ON👏SUNSCREEN 👏
This would happen to my face every weekend at the pool as a kid. Yes, I wore sunscreen. I just really really luked swimming, enough to not come in after burning
I had this happen to me at 12 years old. Was at a waterpark and was to young and stubborn to want to put on sunscreen. Got sick in the evening (family thought I was overreacting) and the next
Day had big blisters on my shoulder. The skin on my shoulders still have some tiny white spots that look like blisters and get burned more easily too. Always put on sunscreen when going outside! Even on cloudy days.
Hallucinating is also a symptom of sun poisoning. Discovered this in Bali 😅
There is a reason we have good sunscreens and most people here actually wear sun shirts when swimming because at some point in their life they learn that lesson.
Also no hat no play!
I had this when I was a kid on my face from snowboarding. It swole up until I could barely open my eyes. So interesting...😮
The way you and I both went 😮 at the exact same time 😂
Writing that down on my list of places I never wanna go. Or more like adding another reason why not to go next to big insects and other wierd things they got there. 😂😂
I've had sum poisoning a few times in my teen years. Water blisters at the back of my knees, top of my ears, on my forehead, my lap as well. Wasn't fun.. Never went to the hospital. Didn't know that was a thing.
Queensland (my state) Australia is the melanoma capital. 80% of people will have a skin cancer removed at least once in their life. A lot of biopsies come back benign if cancerous it's not life threatening if you get your skin checked regularly. We have free skin cancer clinics that ask you to come in yearly for a check up 😊👍
U don’t even wanna know how high the skin cancer rate is here 💀
Had this same thing with the same symptoms mentioned above the night before my first day of senior year. We had spent the day on the bay, and I only applied sunscreen once. I woke up shaking and vomiting and crying in pain. I begged my parents to take me to the ER, and they just lathered me in aloe & gave me ibuprofen 🥴 went to school the next day puking & looking like a lobster. I’ll never forget it lol
wow that is terrifying 😬
Had a sunburn like this when I was at a summer festival when I was like 14, on my shoulders, chest and neck 🫠 The skin on my shoulders is still kinda splotchy and discolored, six years later. Mind you, this happened to me in June in Germany. I would not survive a day in Australia
Well, one more thing added to the list of things my parents absolutely should have taken me to the hospital for.
I remember getting so many burns like this and sometimes worse on my back when I was a child (neglect from one parent); my partner informed me recently that my back has scarring and discolouration (it’s not really noticeable unless you are looking closely) that tracks with the damage done to it. He didn’t make the connection til we were on the topic of sunburns and such
Me and my friends got stranded tubing for 7 hours or so. We were really badly sunburnt and were suffering some exposer as well from lack of water and food while out there
They went to the hospital and I didn't for the symptoms. All they did was give one girl like an anti nausea or pain pill, gave the other girl nothing, and just told them to drink water and get rest. Waste of time because they didn't do anything and racked up a giant bill.
Also I swear the sun in NSW well the UV specifically is definitely higher- I blistered from an over cast day this year while visiting NSW from Victoria- so wild I didn’t even know I was getting burnt till it was to late.
Now I understand why they have sunscreen in litres, instead of those tiny bottles.
Usually once I year, I put myself in a situation where I’m raw dogging the sun all day.. I’ve never blistered, but I do get headaches and diarrhea for a days time. Also I’m part redhead and pale so I’m basically cosplaying as a glow up stick each summer. So far I’m good this year.
Wear freaking sunscreen and reapply that sus white substance throughout the day.
Every kid in the summer time when they don’t put on sunscreen
The ozone layer does exist in Australia, it’s just thinner (though rapidly repairing thankfully.)
if you have that. dont take a hit shower. just dont. those patches of skin will break and leave a mark FOREVER and nothing can undo it. my friend had that happend
