Brief Answer: Allergy Detailed Answer: Hi, Most common reason is allergy. The allergens might be in the bed. Put the linen in 100 degree hot water and wash. Most often these are short lived reactions to such allergens. You can just apply CALADRYL lotion over it and / or take antihistamine preparations available over the counter like CLARITIN. Hope this helps.
