When you go out, it is imperative to place creams against the sun, apply it occasionally (almost every two hours) and use the right kind of creams.
But it's very easy to forget to protect yourself, especially when you start hot summer months and get out of the dark houses, schools and offices and head to the sunny beach.
As a result, millions of people every year "kiss" from the ultraviolet rays of the sun and suffer from burns.
Burns from the sunlight create great pain and may last for more than a week, so people are reluctant to try almost anything to remove these pains.
Dr. Erin Gilber, a dermatologist certified in New York, has three tips on what works and what not in these cases.
"If you're burned out of the sun, what are you going to do? ... What is the best thing to do? The first thing you need to do is to leave the rays of the sun for as much as you can during the next week. That's because the body is trying to cure itself, while extra exposure to ultraviolet rays only damages your cells and kills them, prolongs the damage and pain. Remember that burning the skin also increases skin cancer.
The second thing you can do is put the cleaning rags in the refrigerator, immersed in milk, and apply them to the areas where the sun burns you. This has the effect of 'cooling' and removes the heat caused by sunburn, "she said.
Dr. Gilber also has shown that aloe vera extracts help relieve pain.
