Do not let a sunburn, rash or sting spoil your day at the beach. Relieve the pain with these clever secrets that follow…

You fell asleep in the sun and now you look like a lobster:
What to do: Take ibuprofen to reduce pain and inflammation. Next, apply aloe vera gel or a paste made with 2 tablespoons of corn flour and 2 tablespoons of water to the burned areas.

If you prefer the handmade paste, rinse it 10 minutes later. Be sure to moisturize the area every 2-3 hours.

You put on glasses on the beach and your foot is bleeding:
What to do: Apply pressure with a cloth or towel for at least 15 minutes and the bleeding will stop or at least be significantly reduced. If not, see a doctor - you may need stitches.

You were bitten by a warbler:
What to do: Soak the area with vinegar or sea water (or add every now and then) for 15 minutes and then remove any visible tentacles with an eyebrow tweezers.

If you see a tiny bladder on the skin that contains the poison, smear it with shaving foam and scrape it with a credit card. Take ibuprofen for the next 24 hours to reduce pain and inflammation.

You were bitten by a bee:
What to do: First, get out of here. When a bee stings you, it sends a signal that it is in danger, which attracts more bees.

Next, use an eyebrow tweezers to remove the sting if it is still in the package, apply ice to the area to relieve the pain and take an antihistamine to reduce itching and irritation.

If you are bitten by a bee or sting, it can cause a severe allergic reaction. If you have difficulty breathing, have redness everywhere or feel dizzy or nauseous, call an ambulance immediately.
