Photodermatitis
Description
Inflamed, rough patches of skin caused by getting too much sun or other type of ultraviolet radiation.
Overview
Photodermatitis is a condition in which the skin gets inflamed after getting too much sun or other source of ultraviolet radiation.
Symptoms
It usually occurs on exposed parts of the body, such as the face, upper chest, and arms. The skin may form dense clusters of small bumps and blisters or develop inflamed, raised rough patches that itch or burn.
Treatments
The rash often clears up on its own within 10 days. An anti-itch cream might help with symptoms.
