what is your question? i saw you in that movie "the others"
me too. That used to happen to me when I was a kid but eventually I grew out of it..
My mom gets the same condition, she has to wear long sleeves and pants when she goes out in the summer sun.
Some people have skin conditions that make the Sun intolerable. I would suggest you go to your doctor and ask the same question you asked here. Something is clearly amiss when the sun scars you after two hours.
Get thee to a doctor, my friend!
My brother-in-law is also allergic to the sun. After being in the sun he breaks out in an itchy rash. He says that the 1% (the strongest you can get) anti-itch cream works well for him. There are 2 kinds - one with cortisone and one with generic Benadryl - Diphenhydramine. I don't know which he says works best - but they are not too expensive - so I would suggest a trip to Walgreen's or Walmart and trying a tube of both! Try not to scratch and keep your skin as cool as possible! Hot water can temporarily relieve the itching - but sets you up for a rebound!
