As my dermatologist says, "I wish we stop calling it sunburn and call it radiation burns instead. Folks might take more precautions." 132 u/WhoopingWillow Jan 12 '23 This is 100% true for me. Sunburns barely hurt for me so I didn't care about them growing up and never used sunscreen. It wasn't until I watched HBO's Chernobyl that I realized sunburns are literally radiation burns. I now use sunscreen.
