Hi,
Probably you may be having mild form of urticaria. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. After investigations, proper treatments may be given to you. Antihistaminics like fexofenadine 180 mg or desloratidine 5 mg daily may be given. If needed, steroids in tappering dose may be taken. You may be alright. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
