Would swimming in an indoor pool help or hurt a sunburn? the water's cold...?
Answer:
i would think hurt, due to the chemicals, take a luke-warm to cool bath, put some oatmeal (or Aveeno) into it, or just leave it plain,
The chlorine may dry your skin out more and make it more itchy and sensitive.
if you have broken the skin or a blister has popped i wouldn't go swimming - the chances of getting an infection is pretty high. if the outer layer of skin is ok - just red and inflamed i'm sure it would feel nice.
