Summer is here, and that means more sunshine, more beach days — and more chances for sunburns. At Stopwatch Urgent Care, we know you’re busy enjoying the season, so we’re keeping it simple: here’s how to protect your skin and what to do if the sun gets a little too hot to handle.
☀️ Your Sunburn Prevention Game Plan:
🧴 Sunscreen = Non-Negotiable
Use SPF 30 or higher, and don’t forget to reapply every 2 hours (or sooner if you’re swimming or sweating). Yes, even on cloudy days!
👕 Cover Up
Lightweight clothing, hats, and sunglasses can help block harmful rays and keep you cooler too.
⛱️ Find the Shade
Take breaks from direct sunlight, especially between 10 AM and 4 PM — the peak burn zone hours.
🌊 Reflective Trouble Zones
Watch out near water, sand, and pavement. They reflect sunlight and make sunburns happen even faster.
💧 Hydration Helps
Drink water all day long to help your body and skin stay cool and healthy.
When to Swing by Stopwatch Urgent Care:
Sometimes the sun sneaks up on you. If you end up with a burn that’s painful, blistering, or just not getting better — we’ve got you.
✅ Fast treatment for moderate to severe sunburns
✅ Care for dehydration and heat-related symptoms
✅ No appointments needed — just walk in and we’ll get you feeling better, fast!
We’re open every day with extended hours because sunburns (and life) don’t always happen on a schedule.
🌞 Enjoy the sun, stay safe, and remember — Stopwatch Urgent Care is here when you need us!
