Sunburn

Also known as sun burn, solar erythema, UV burn, photodermatitis

Sunburn is an acute inflammatory skin reaction caused by overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources, resulting in redness, pain, swelling, and sometimes blistering. It occurs when UV rays damage DNA in skin cells and trigger an inflammatory cascade involving prostaglandins and reactive oxygen species. Many people seek natural alternatives to conventional treatments to soothe pain, reduce inflammation, support skin repair, and minimise long-term damage such as premature aging or hyperpigmentation.
