Brief Answer:
Are you on any medications?

Detailed Answer:
HI,

I will like to know for how long you have been experiencing this and whether there are any medications you have been taking. At times, medications might increased sensitivity to sunlight on exposed parts of the body. I will also like to know at what times you experience these and for how long this has been going on. When you have cold hands, is there any change in color?

Kindly respond to the above questions so that I can get back to you with a personalized, comprehensive and helpful response.

Waiting.....
