Last month i got sunburnt on the very top of my left thigh.now, a month later there are small itchy , red welts on it. what could it be?

PMLE: This sounds like polymorphous light eruption, which is a reaction to intense sunlight. However, it usually breaks out within hours not weeks. You should consult dermatology for definitive diagnosis.
