Pioneers on wagon trains in the 1700s often treated sunburns using natural remedies available to them. They might have applied cool compresses made from wet cloths or used ointments made from ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, or even butter. Additionally, some would utilize herbal poultices to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation. Staying hydrated and seeking shade were also common practices to mitigate further damage.
