Maybe you are includein one of this groups, in that case you have to be very careful with your skin. Vulnerable Groups include: Fair skinned people who very often have red or white hair and blue eyes. Those persons with certain medical conditions such as albinism, lots of moles or a previous skin cancer. Those on certain medications such as tetracyclines or diuretics. People with certain skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema and vitiligo need to take special care when they are in the sun. The elderly, babies and young children are particularly sensitive. In case that your skin still feels burn you can do this: Get the person out of the sun. Cool the skin where possible with cold running water, a cold shower or immersion in a cool to luke warm bath.
