Do sunburns turn into a rash?

Answer by  Binome (1975)

Generally, no. Some forms of porphyria and other photosensitive conditions can result in a rash due to exposure to sunlight, but a normal sunburn isn't going to turn into a rash.

The destruction of skin tissue that is a sunburn usually turns into blistering, flaking, and shedding of skin, which may seem somewhat like a rash. It is also possible for exposure to ultra-violet light to cause a true rash in some people, though it is not one and the same as a sunburn.

It can turn into a rash due to peeling. You should apply aloe vera to the sunburned area to prevent a rash and it helps with the burn.
