Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
According to your complaints it could be either a photosensitive rash or seborrhoeic dermatitis.
I would recommend you to upload the photographs of the affected areas so that I can have a clearer picture of the condition and can guide you accordingly.
As far as injection is concerned you must have received a steroid shot like injection hydrocortisone.
