Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of irritation and burning sensation on the skin of face which occurs when sun exposure exceed the protective capacity of skin pigment it causes sun burn which leads to rashes and burning sensation of skin. More so clogged pores of skin due to dust and bacteria are other possible causes for this. I would suggest you to apply cold compresses to the affected area. Take aspirin or acetaminophen for itchiness and burning sensation. Avoid sun exposure. Drink plenty of water. Take over the counter anti allergic drug like benadryl or zystec. Apply broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 even if you are not under sun exposure.
If symptoms doesn't get better in 3-4 days consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe steroids or hydroxychloroquinone.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
