In lupus 101 you learn about the distinctive Butterfly rash. Lupus's trademark on your face. That glowing hot feeling you have under your eyes and across the bridge of your nose is like a beacon to tell you when you are having a flare or your body is under a type of flare stress. You will Always have sensitivity with the sun there is no such critter as a sun sensitivity rash. Lupus is Allergic to the sun in a way. You can't even be under a strong UV light without your lupus feeling it. Your supposed to be wearing sunblock everywhere and having a sun shade on when out. Granted I do not follow these things either, but if your asking this question i assume something has given you a reason to. Your having a flare as a result of you being in the sun with your lupus.
