The most common form of sun allergy is polymorphic light eruption, also known as sun poisoning. <\/p>\n<p>Some people have a hereditary type of sun allergy, while others develop signs and symptoms only when triggered by another factor &mdash; such as certain types of medications or skin exposure to plants such as limes or wild parsnip. <\/p>\n<p>Mild cases of sun allergy may resolve without treatment. More severe cases may require steroid creams or pills. People who have a severe sun allergy may need to take preventative measures and wear sun-protective clothing.<\/p>\n<h2>CAUSES<\/h2>\n<p>Certain medications, chemicals and medical conditions can make the skin more sensitive to the sun. It isn&#8217;t clear why some people have a sun allergy and others don&#8217;t. Inherited traits may play a role.<\/p>\n<h2>SYMPTOMS<\/h2>\n<p>The appearance of skin affected by sun allergy can vary widely, depending on the disorder that&#8217;s causing the problem. Signs and symptoms may include: <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<ul>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Redness<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Itching or pain<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Tiny bumps that may merge into raised patches<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Scaling, crusting or bleeding<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Blisters or hives<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>Signs and symptoms usually occur only on skin that has been exposed to the sun and typically develop within minutes to hours after sun exposure. <\/p>\n<p><strong>When to see a doctor<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>See a doctor if you have unusual, bothersome skin reactions after exposure to sunlight.
