Sun sensitivity

Sun sensitivity, also known as photosensitivity, is a condition where the skin reacts abnormally to sunlight, causing symptoms like redness, rash, itching, or burning. This occurs because certain medications, skincare products, or medical conditions increase the skin's vulnerability to ultraviolet (UV) rays. When exposed to sunlight, especially UVB rays, sensitive skin may develop these reactions more quickly or severely than usual. To manage sun sensitivity, it's important to use broad-spectrum sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure during peak hours. If you suspect sun sensitivity, consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and guidance.
