You could be probably suffering from PMLE , which is kind of Sun allergy . Always wear broad spectrum sunscreen while going out .reapply it every 4 hours. Cover your exposed skin with gloves, full sleeved clothes. An actual examination of the affected skin and clinical history will be helpful in arriving at an proper diagnosis and for advising treatment.
