Hi,
You seem to be developing an urticarial skin reaction.
This can occur due to any drug intake.
Hope you are not on any pain killers or antibiotics.
Even sometimes intake of some outside food or some packed or canned foods can lead to development of such allergic reactions.
You need to take some oral antihistamines drug for the same.
Apply topical calamine lotion over the affected area.
See a dermatologist if 've itching persists.
