When looking for sunburn relief, both natural and homeopathic solutions become available. For those wanting to ease the pain with the help of nature, use the old stand-by aloe vera gel or the lesser known treatment, Calendula salve. Fresh aloe vera helps prevent infection thanks to its antimicrobial properties. Calendula salve can be used for its anti- inflammatory and healing traits. Dr. Jain suggests that “increasing your intake of vitamin C and applying vitamin E topically will help your immune system because they act as antioxidants in healing oxidative damage to the cells.”

As for man-made cures, there are a bevy of options to choose from. Stop by your local drug store and pick up burn remedies such as Arnica, Cantharis, Urtica and Causticum to help relieve burning sensations associated with minor to third-degree sunburn.
