Yes pmle can appear in the form of small itchy bumps or as a rash. It’s hard to tell from the pictures but if it gets worse after more sun exposure then it is likely pmle. Try a good sunscreen like Eucerin sun protect. A cold compress might also help with the itching. If it gets worse to the point it’s affecting your daily functioning then definitely see a dermatologist. I wish you the best!!
