What Causes Rashes On The Arms And Chest?

I was in Jamaica for a week...got sunburned on the second day, stayed out of the Sun as much as possible after that but on day 5 I was in the Sun for approx 45min and developed a rash on my arms and chest...also my lips cracked . I am not sure if it was from the Sun or a reaction to the humera that I get every 2 weeks. My last shot was the day before I left for vacation. Rash was itchy and cortisone cream and benadryl helped
