She said that she was wearing sunscreen but an hour was enough for the tropical rays to cook her skin.

To make matters worse, Maisie had to take a nine-hour flight to the UK the next day.

Shocking images posted on Facebook show that his blisters were so bad that they were standing under his shirt.

Maisie said in her subtitle, "It does not hurt to see how swollen and disgusting my back is, but that's what my sunburn has turned into this morning, just before a flight of 9 hours back to England, so shocked! A & E is! (wear sunscreen)

"I was snorkelling for an hour and my back was visible, but I did not realize my back was burning and I was wearing sunscreen.

"I blushed like that because the sun was so hot in Cuba on Tuesday and my skin was very clear."

Bulbs

An image shows a person raising the top of Maisie, exposing two bulging yellow vesicles.

The one on the left is so big that it is lowered while the one on the right is smaller but remains prominent enough to allow it to pierce the top.

Painful black marks surround the blister, including two smaller ones under her bikini strap, while her back is almost entirely red.

The message has been shared more than 10,000 times on Facebook, under the comments of thousands of people.

Nicola Hartshorn Procter said, "That's what happened to me with the 50 factor on my legs because I'm so blond and so hot that I feel so painful for you that I had blisters but not so big.

"I hope you will begin to heal and recover soon."

Courtney Noel said: "It looks like the 3rd degree is almost burning."

Clara Ebanks commented: "It seems so painful to hope that your skin will not be too damaged."

Kimberly Thomas said, "You need medical attention as soon as possible. I am very surprised if they let you fly. These are serious burns and you may need a skin graft. You are also at risk of infection.

"Please consult a doctor as soon as possible.

"Your body can also be shocked at any time due to burns and sunburn. I'm sorry to worry. Please feel free to ask for medical help. "

Jesscia Louise Humphreys said, "Wow, I can not even imagine your pain! It seems so painful! I hope you're fine! "

Maisie then posted an updated photo showing the bulbs removed.

Speaking today, Maisie confirmed that she had been treated at A & E.

She said: "The blisters in my back are still very painful and I still can not sit or lie on my back.

"I did not have them removed or anything, the hospital told me that they will just have to go through themselves."

Her father, Dean Squires, said, "She was wearing sunscreen at the front and back. It's been the last two days of holidays.

"We went to the hospital and they put Sudocrem on it and said let it go naturally.

"The two tallest jumped when her little sister pbaded her in the airport shuttle to the city.

"She [Maisie] howled like hell. It was not good for her at all. "

The 38-year-old woman also explained how much their injuries were "far worse in real life" and had said that someone had told her that she would need a bra for his bulbs.

He added, "Every time I looked at it, it made me shudder, it was so much worse in real life.

"I have never seen so bad before. We know that teenagers do not listen, but she was wearing cream and was still burned.

"I hope it will be a good warning to others.

"Someone told him, you'll need a bra for those."

Take extra precautions

Experts urged those going on snorkeling trips to take extra precautions.

A spokesman for the British Association of Dermatologists told the Sun: "When swimming, especially snorkeling that exposes the back to the sun for a long time, when the UV index is high, you have to take extra precautions.

"Sunscreen disappearing quickly, protective clothing such as a rash vest is a necessity."

They added: "It is always better to prevent than cure sunburns because the treatment will not do much, and the damage to the skin can not be reversed.

"To protect yourself, we recommend you to stay in the shade between 11am and 3pm, to apply sunscreen with a SPF of 30 and good protection against UVA, and to use clothes protective such as a hat, a t-shirt and sunglbades.

"Cases of severe sunburn, especially in young children, need to be examined by a doctor.

"If you suffer from huge blisters, you should immediately get help, which means a trip to your local treatment center."
