Turunc: local notes for sunburn
Nightlife is the main draw in Turunc, and the mix of heat, drinks and short sleep explains many of the morning-after calls to a doctor. Nearby you will also find Armutalan, Siteler, Orhaniye. Daytime sun followed by alcohol at night makes dehydration and burns worse. Cool the skin, drink water and avoid more sun.
What is sunburn?
Too much UV radiation burns the skin: it becomes red, hot and painful within hours, and blisters and peeling may follow.
Common triggers
Spending too long in intense sun unprotected; pale skin, midday rays, glare from water and sand and some medicines all increase the chance.
How sunburn feels
- Headache, chills or tiredness
- Peeling skin a few days later
- Swelling and blisters in more intense cases
- Red, hot and tender skin
How sunburn is treated
The physician looks at the skin on camera, judges how deep the burn is, advises on painkillers and skin care and prescribes treatment where it is suitable. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest cooling gels, moisturisers, painkillers and, for intense burns, a stronger steroid cream.
- Get out of the sun and cool the skin with a cool shower or damp cloth
