Solar urticaria is otherwise known as sun allergy. It is a condition of having hives on the sun-exposed areas of the skin. Reddish spots or welts may appear on the skin. It gets cleared within an hour or after avoiding sunlight exposure. Using broad-spectrum sunscreen and dark clothing photoprotection can help to manage it.
