You may be suffering from sunlight allergy, known as PMLE. There are also various other conditions that can mimic this like parapsoriasis. You will need to be examined by a dermatologist to find the exact cause. Sun allergies are very common and treatable. You will need to wear sun protective clothing or use a sunscreen to prevent sun allergies. Before that you will need some anti allergic medicines to reduce the allergy. Warm regards.
