As with any sunburn, it is vital that you stay hydrated. Drink water and/or sports drinks to replenish lost electrolytes.  Signs of dehydration include dry mouth, feeling sleepy or dizzy, not having to urinate as frequently, and headache. Children can become dehydrated even easier than adults, so if your child is displaying these symptoms, make sure you talk to a doctor. Drink at least 8 eight ounces of water every day, and drink even more when you are out in the sun.  Also, watch out for heat exhaustion. The white spots that show up after sunburn are sometimes guttate hypomelanosis, which is completely harmless and simply a discoloration in the skin believed to be caused by sun damage. This usually occurs in middle aged and older individuals.  Although treatment is not usually necessary, some treatments are as follows: topical calcineurin inhibitors, fractional carbon dioxide laser, phenol, and cryotherapy. A doctor can prescribe topical steroids or other medications that may eventually make the spots look better. You might be surprised to learn how many common household items can be used to soothe a pesky sunburn. Cooked and cooled oatmeal, yogurt, and tea bags soaked in cold water can all be applied to the sunburned skin to create soothing effects. Coconut oil applied directly to the burned skin can help soothe and heal the burn.
