Hi,
Thank you for your query.
I would appreciate if you can provide the following details to guide your further:
1. Your age.
2. Any new medicine or anything started lately?
3. Any exposure to new chemical or environment which could have caused an allergic reaction.
I shall appreciate if you can upload a photograph of the welt pattern using the facility provided on this site for me to have a look at it.
The description provided by you suggests that it can be urticaria, which is an allergic skin reaction. With the above information I shall be in a better position to guide you. In the interim you can have an anti-allergic tablet and observe the response.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing you an early recovery.
Regards,
