How Can Swelling And Bruises On The Hands Due To Photosensitivity Be Treated?

I have an extreme sensitivity to the sun. I have had it all my life. I am now thirty eight. When I spend too much time in the sun, like driving, I get an extreme burning and itching sensation. My hands swell and my blood vessels break and cause a bruising appearance.
