Severe Itching And Bumps On The Body. Could This Be Related To Food?

Hello Doctor,
Last night i woke up and found myself scratching alot. i dose off and ignored it. I continued to inch though. So this morning i got up and all i saw was red swollen bumps all over my body. Where it itches, it feels really hot too. I thought about all the things i have consumed and used on my body. Can things still react after certain amount of days? The bumps would disappear and move to another place throughout my body. Now it is on my face. My palms are not itchy so it not anything severe, i hope. Any thoughts? Thanks for reading.
