Science and Technology / Re: Health..........Use suncream you know
« Last post by SteveH on Yesterday at 09:26:02 am »A family's dream holiday turned into a nightmare when severe sunburn left a 10-year-old boy requiring hospital treatment.
Hector had been enjoying a sunshine break with his loved ones in Cape Verde, when he decided he wanted to enjoy a final few hours of fun by the hotel pool before they left for the airport.
His mother Natalie said their suncream had run out so they purchased an extra bottle of high factor cream at the resort and applied that.
However shortly after leaving the pool, his back and shoulders turned bright red and huge blisters started to appear.
Natalie has decided to speak about Hector's experience to warn other families going abroad about only using suncreams they know and trust.
