My hands fo the past few years have been breaking out in a rash. This had never happened untill after I had a severe case of pioson ivy 4 years ago. When ever I cut our grass my hands break out a few hours after.

But a few months ago I got severy sunburbned on my hands and arms and broke out with the same rash. I'ts usually not bothersome, but when I get hot, the rash seems to itch and get worse. Did the overexposure to the sun over the past few years cause this or was it the pioson ivy?
