I Don't Understand The Rash I Get With Methotrexate?

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Suffolk UK

I understand that methotrexate and sunlight don't mix, but can I get a rash because of just normal daylight? My chest erupts in almost a papular-like rash on even the cloudiest day. I also get the sensation of sunburn on my forearms but less often a rash. I would like to hear if anyone has similar experiences please.
