I have a condition known as PMLE which stands for Polymorphic Light Eruption. In plain English, it means my body sometimes incorrectly thinks it’s under attack from UV light and thus, I get an allergic response (rash) from the sun. I’ve had this condition for years now. My case is pretty mild and my outbreaks are random. This time around, unfortunately, it’s lasting WAY longer than normal and it’s been two week of unbroken rash. It’s really bumming me out and it highly frustrating. I’m greatly embarrassed by how my skin looks when I break out in the rash, but I’m hopeful that by talking about it openly and publicly, I can not only help get through some of my fears, but help educate other people about the condition. I’ve tried to capture a little of what it looks like, but it’s really difficult to get it properly on film. Its a lot redder than it appears here, and much more “bumpy” and “rashy” but this at least gives you an idea.

Question by feminizzle: My deer chihuahua has a skin rash that started out as scabby patches, and now they are swelling and bleeding. ?
I am really worried about her. Now her skin seems to be really red. I have tried changing her food, and keeping her in the house in case it’s an allergy, but it’s only getting worse.I have also tried oatmeal shampoos, and treatments to help with the itching.What else can I do?

Maybe your dog has some type of fungal infection on the skin which leads to scaling and itchiness. It can only be treated with antibiotic. The only way to be certain is to take her to the vet of course.
