Mupirocin is an antibiotic ointment primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections and is not indicated for treating sunburn. Severe sunburn is a result of skin damage from UV radiation and typically requires treatments such as cool compresses, aloe vera, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Using mupirocin on sunburned skin may not provide any benefit and could potentially irritate the already sensitive area. It's best to consult a healthcare professional for appropriate sunburn treatment.
