PLE is believed to be a type of delayed allergy, though its exact cause remains unclear.Exposure to light can lead to an itchy rash consisting of raised bumps on the exposed skin areas. This rash can persist for a few days. Using sunblock is recommended for prevention. For mild PLE instances, a topical steroid can be applied for treatment. In more intense cases, a brief regimen of oral steroids might be used either as a preventative or treatment method. In cases that are resistant, controlled ultraviolet light exposure might help alleviate symptoms.
