Heavens no. Any time you recieve a sunburn, you are at a higher risk for a melanoma. Try to avoid sunburning at all costs. The tanning bed would make the burn even worse. You should treat the sunburn with an aloe product, and stay out of the sun for at least a few days.

No! You should never go to a tanning bed if you are already sunburned. You will just be making things worse. Every time your skin gets sunburned you are damging not only the outer layer but the inner layers of skin as well, increasing your risk for skin cancer.
