Hi there young man.... Thanks for the clear pic. Off the cuff this appears to be a condition we allude to as PMLE or light eruption. It fits in with the history provided as well and is aggravated by ☀️ exposure. You will require to use a Sunscreen 🧴 from dawn to dusk and preferably a blocking agent containing Zinc Oxide. You may also benefit from the use of a topical mild to moderate steroid cream in the evening as spot application for a few days For this prescription and any further detailed information and discussions, do connect ONLINE using this App's INSTANT ONLINE Consultation for a quick resolution 🙏 Cheers & Good Luck 🍀
