Hi,

It seems that probably your father is having photosensitive dermatitis. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.

Tell him to avoid sun exposure. Tell him to cover the body while going under the sun. Apply sunscreen lotion on exposed parts to protect the skin.

Continue Levocetirizine if itching is there. Tab. Hydroxychloroquine. Apply mild steroid cream on affected areas.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
