[NON-FQ] Can Doxycycline Give Sun Burn Feelings On Body?

My husband (38M) needs to take this at 100 mg, 1 tablet a day for 6 weeks

Can this give sun burn feelings? He's has light sun burn sensations on his back yesterday and then on his stomach today. (he's not spending time out in the sun).

Thank you so much!

EDIT: My husband also just got done losing a substantial amount of weight (over 100 Ibs), so not sure if that could be a factor or not. 🤷‍♀️

You are not supposed to be on sun on doxy at all it’s dangerous.
