Sunburn in children in the west of Scotland.
Leaving babies and young children out in the sun during periods of unexpected exceptionally fine weather resulted in 142 children being treated for sunburn in the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Glasgow over a 6-year period. Care-givers should be warned of the potential hazards of overexposure to sunshine.
