The red, somewhat swollen and stinging part of a sunburn can last up to three days, depending on the severity. Usually it settles down after 24 hours, but the damaged skin will likely be itchy until it is fully healed.

They last anywhere from 3 days to about a week. You can ease the discomfort of a sunburn with pure aloe lotion or add vinegar to bath water. Those remedies will take away the sting but not the burn.

Sunburns can last anywhere from a couple of hours to over a week depending on the severity. Average time for a sunburn that is mild will be about 2 days. Aloe vera helps relieve the pain.
