Hello and welcome to HCM,
Skin lesions like itchiness after eating or drinking high sugar food itens suggests that you are probably suffering from allergy.
Allergy is common after eating or drinking food and drinks.
Management of allergic conditions is by stopping the offending agent and use of anti-allergic drugs.
However, before instituting any treatment it is important to diagnose the allergic condition.
Thus, I suggest you to consult an immunologist for clinical examination, relevant investigations and management.
Thanks and take care
