question: My girlfriends feels burning and pain on her neck , upper back, and arms after being exposed to the sun, why is she in pain? Is there a symptom that she may be having? She has told me that since being young she had been told to not be out in the sun for an extended amount of time because it causes her pain. Why is that? She is afraid that it will lead to skin cancer , will it lead to skin cancer? Does she have a symptom? Are there any cures, treatments and/or prevention s that she may be able to take? Thank you Doctors for your help.
