It might be sun poisoning....... thats what it looks like when you get it......... and what is wrong with you ???? do you think you need to tan to look what??? stupid??? why do you want to try to increase your chances of getting skin cancer... My best friend died from skin cancer...She used to live in the sun, camping, swimming, tanning, all the time..........and it killed her........... get real here girl........... you dont need to tan to be beautiful.........its the person you are not the tan on the skin...........

calm down. theres no way skin cancer would come that fast. It's probly just a rash or something. If it doesnt go away in a day or so see your doctor
Reply:I'd see a doctor just in case.
Reply:It is a possibility that it could be cancer. It also could be an illergic reaction to a different type of tanning lotion you may have used. It could have been caused by the tanning, could not have been. My sister had something similar a few weeks back, turns out it was bed bug bites... either way I would contact a dermatologist..
Reply:its probably just a heat rash. put some anti-biotic ointment and it should go away, if it does then if you're still worried about it go to the doc. but I'm sure its not skin cancer, it wouldn't show up THAT fast. and i do reccomed STOP tanning. when in a tanning bed you are 3times MORE likely to develope skin cancer than just sitting out in the sun. skin cancer is the most deadly when it comes to all cancers.
Reply:Skin cancer doesn't just pop up overnight. They will probably go away. BUT, tanning is soooo bad for your skin. I just had skin cancer removed from my face, it was no picnic. It was caused by sun damage. As you get older tanning will damage your skin and it can not be repaired.
Reply:i agree with GhostLady....apart from the cosmetic benefit(s) of tanning (which is temporary), there are just too many risks involved with over exposure to the sun, UV rays, tanning beds, etc. Obviously the main one is skin cancer, of varying severities. However, too much sun can also cause pre-mature aging of the skin, sun spots, could cause your skin to lose its youthful elasticity prematurely, etc. Just be content with your natural skin color.
