Putting acid on damaged skin tissue is supposed to help things? No. You have blistered the skin which is a severe sunburn. You can try to treat yourself at home, but I would recommend seeking medical assistance. Below is a link from an actual professional doctor with advice about sunburn.

Yes it does help! In fact it is recommended.  Add two cups apple cider vinegar to a bathtub of warm water.  Soak for 15 minutes. The skin will be calmed and soothed, and much of the pain will be immediately relieved.  After the bath, you can use one of the remedies described below to promote further healing. (You should check out the other tips on the site too, they are very useful and I use them when I get burned! I am also very pale and get burned a lot so there you go) :)

its a big NO!! it will make things worse! its better if you put burnt ointment or if you dont have that ordinary lotion will do to decrease pain
