Please help me, i'm dying over here!

A. pour a lot of cold beer over sunburn or

B. Drink beer until sunburn is no longer a concern

 
I once got a REALLY bad sunburn on my stomach, and it itched really bad. i think I tried ever anti-itch cream on the market, cold showers (with made it 10x worse), etc. I couldn't sit still it bothered me so bad. I couldn't sleep, couldn't work, and almost got into a wreck because it itched to bad. It was horrible, but it was gone after a day.

2B all the way!! 😀
 
Take a cheeze grater and scrape off the dermis. Then liberally douse it with tobasco sauce. You won't care about the itch after that.
 
Just got back from the pharmacy. The man said believe it or not, benadryl works good because if it's itching, then it is very likely to be an allergy of getting too much sun in a very short time. Needless to say i doused my chest in solarcaine while i was still in CVS too. Notice how much calmer I am typing? If this didn't work though, i was gonna try the cheese grater idea.

If you're going to use Benadryl, keep in mind that it is an antihistamine. Use a lower-strength cream designed for large-area applications, not the more concentrated formula. Last thing you want is to OD on Benadryl.
