So I took a few hours of sun on the beach down in South Carolina this passed weekend, didn't use any sunscreen because the pharma companies want to kill us all. I definitely regret that decision. I got a pretty bad sunburn on most of my body - forehead, under forearms, chest and stomach, back, shoulders, and parts of my legs. I work security so I'm on my feet most of the time - shitty colleagues not giving me enough breaks doesn't help. It also causes me to walk with a limp because it's more of a hindrance to walking, rather than pain. It's 9:45pm and I don't have Epsom salt. Any help/advice to reduce the swelling overnight? I'm not expecting it to go away immediately, just as long as I can walk okay.

A good naturopath will teach you that the left hand draws out, the right hand pushes in. If you hold your left hand on the burn, it will pull the heat out of the sunburn.
