It hurts really bad when touched in a sunburned spot.

Burning, sensitive skin, hot to the touch, that could be quite painful and cause future damage to the skin. Not a good idea.

Like hell! When I was a kid my back suffered from sunburn due to too much sunbathing. Wow I couldn't sleep comfortably because each time my back rubbed the sheets, I felt like crying! Taking a bath was also painful.

It feels a bit like it would if your entire body were to uniformly be dipped all at once into a vat of boiling water. Only for a split second, of course. That split second repeats, with throbbing frequency until you eventually get a headache from the pain. Depending on the severity of the burn, you are unable to sit or lie down for at least two days and the slightest rubbing at all results in agony on a scale that makes you rather be dead. Last summer, we went to Wrightsville Beach and I stayed out in the waves for almost eight hours with no sunblock. I was stupid, but I didn't think it was really sunny enough to put any on and then I just lost track of time. That was on the first day of our vacation and that was the only day I was able to walk more than 20 feet without feeling like death. Every move you make has to be calculated and slowly thought out so you rule out the possibility of stretching the muscles under the skin too much. I got the worst of it on my back and my right arm. My arm was burned to the last layer of skin, perhaps deeper and it was red for five months afterward. My girlfriend's legs were the same way. And if someone slaps your sunburned back? That's enough pain that you wouldn't be surprised if you blacked out completely. This is a severe case, of course, but even on the small scale, sunburn is something you do not want to have.

Not nearly as bad as arc flash if you're a welder, but it is simply a sharp increase in sensitivity to touch or temperature over an area of one's skin, it can sting and when it drys out, it will either itch or sting further.

To me it feel like my skin is stretched and want to rip.

It feels like burning.

It hurts and it feels hot and its annoying and ugh not something i like i totally hate it when it happens.

You feel pain and discomfort. Difficult to move your body/limbs (whichever is affected). Your skin is peeling, and you look like a lobster!

Pain...lots of pain!! I have actually only been burnt two or three times in my life...I dont burn easy at all.

It feels like some has taken some sandpaper and rubbed you with it and then put you beside a very hot heater. It is disgusting. lol

It feels hot at first, then it burns, then if it's really bad it begins to itch and peel. The itching is the worst because you can't scratch it without insane pain. That's the stage I'm at right now. :/

at first it feels really hot. If you touch it it feel kinda warm. If it gets really bad it will touch it to hurt it. That's when every smartass in town walks up to touch it .
