Sunburn
Sunburn is a radiation-induced dermatological injury primarily instigated by excessive exposure to sun ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The World Health Organization (WHO) has outlined extensive guidelines on skin health, encompassing the risks and management of sunburns (World Health Organization, Skin Health Guidelines). The severity of the condition is contingent upon variables such as the duration and intensity of solar radiation exposure. Clinically, sunburns are stratified into degrees, with first-degree burns manifesting as erythema and second-degree burns leading to vesicular or bullous lesions (Journal of Dermatology, 2020).
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) posits an alternative etiology, attributing sunburn to an accumulation of heat and dampness within the cutaneous layers. TCM therapeutic modalities aim to dispel this internal heat and facilitate the circulation of Qi and blood (National Institute of Health, Complementary Medicine Review). Regulatory frameworks for sunburn management are delineated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), while nutritional guidelines are promulgated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
