When I swim for a hour or more, my face starts to burn about 10-15 min after I get out and keeps burning for about an half hour. It feels hot to the touch, like a moderate sunburn. The rest of my skin gets a bit red but my face down right hurts. I tried face wash which didn't help and lotion which made it worse. Anyone else have this problem? Ideas to fix it?
thanks
I'd like to think on the positive side and say you were swimming really really REALLY fast and the shear force of the water rushing past created the sensation. :D
on serious note...
Maybe bring a small pool test kit.
It sounds like high chlorine, especially if they shocked it.
At least it has chlorine, I've been to the LA Fitness in Cape Coral FL and there have been many times where there was no chlorine at all. The health dept. had to close the pool a few times because of it. YUCK!
