Male with brown skin. How do I know if I have a sunburn? I guess redness, but for me it is hard to recognize in the mirror because of my skin color.
Does periodic exposure count? Let’s say if I am on the sun for a 10 min and then seek shade and walk under the shade for another 10 and do this for 4-5hrs a day. I am still getting 2hrs of exposure everyday in that manner but giving my skin to heal so to speak, not sure if it makes sense.

Redness is how other people would know. You would know either by the pain it causes or by the fact that when the sunburn heals, all the dead skin peels off.

If you don't know, you've never had one. If you get one, you will know.
