Hi,
i'm a redhead who burns fairly easily, but
i've only blistered twice before. The
first time I was a lobster all over and my
face blistered. The second time I was
burnt bad almost everywhere (legs weren't
too bad) and my shoulders blistered.
On saturday I burnt only two small patches
on each shoulder - I was in and out of the
sun for an hour max with no sunscreen.
However, the right shoulder, which has a
dime sized scar on it, blistered by the
next day (the scar and a patch around it
all blistered) and looks strange compared
to my normal burns - it's very red but
kind of spidery, not just a smooth patch
of red.
I've been very careful ever since my first
blistered burn, which was 7-8 years ago,
because i'm well aware of the dangers of
skin cancer. It really concerns me that
my shoulder(s) can all of the sudden
blister so easily, with no burn anywhere
else.
Should I get it checked? Or just leave it
and be 10 times more careful from here on
out?
Thanks
