How long does sun poisoning last

I mowed the lawn and weed whacked on Sunday Morning, and I believe I have gotten sun poisoning. Today is day 3, and one side is fine, but the other side is getting very large blisters. The red ring around the outside is what is concerning to me. I am afraid that I might be getting an infection. Can you please help advise if this is an infection?
