As a result, I got a nasty sun burn on my shoulders that has blistered and is now excreting a yellowish liquid. This was quite the painful experience. Please feel sorry for me. Kenzie, Minnesota."
My little brother had some of those on his shoulder that were literally 3x bigger than those when he was 5 :( He got his while he was swimming though
Fingers crossed your shoulders better soon!

I feel sorry for you. Too bad you are in Minnesota, I'd share my prescription strength burn cream with you, you need it.

I feel for you! Same thing happened to me a few months ago, but on my face. Very painful, especially on the nose!! Took like 2 weeks to heal, and very embarrassing in public as I could not cover it!!

I had sun poisoning on my shoulders that looked exactly like that when I was in middle school. I had to wear one of my mom's tube tops (yes, there's plenty wrong with that sentence) to get my books for summer reading, and the clerk asked if she could poke it. Um... no?!?!? The cool thing is now I have these huge freckles there, in contrast to the many small freckles that currently color me ^_^ Aloe aloe aloe!!!

I don't feel sorry for you, it's easily avoided, you should take better care really! :P

That looks terribly painful, but not as bad as those dark spots on your neck which should be evaluated by a dermatologist.

Skin cancer is one of the most common tumors. Standardized incidence rates are among men 26 and among women - 21 per 100 000 population. In the former USSR, the tumor is more common in southern Ukraine, Moldova, Krasnodar and Stavropol territories, Astrakhan and Rostov Region. Incidence of skin cancer in recent years increases. Growth rate corresponds to the overall growth of malignant tumors.

Signs of cancers detected in the fossil bones of the Neolithic times, the Egyptian mummies and in bones of American Indians living in pre-Columbian era. Descriptions of malignant tumors found in Egyptian papyri, Babylonian cuneiform tablets and ancient manuscripts. They repeatedly mentioned in Greek medical literature, and Galen, who lived in Rome in 2. BC, wrote about them a hundred times. Although the ancient authors hardly any clear idea of their nature, Hippocrates already distinguish benign and malignant tumors, and Galen knew that malignant tumors spread through the body.
