You most probably is having urticaria in which the patient develops multiple itchy transient skin colored to erythematous plaques over body which have a tendency to spread to other parts...you have to take antihistaminics for the same...Second generation's antihistaminics levocitrizine and fexofenadine are the first line modality...start with 5 mg of levocitrizine inthe evening and may accelerate the dose if required...you would need a proper course so consult a dermatologist...thanks
