Dear Friend
Welcome to Health care magic. I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I will shortly try to help you with my opinion.

It seems that you have been suffering from a condition called as urticaria.
it is an allergic condition of skin characterised by red itchy bumps.
It can be due to recent infection, bite by mosquito/insect, food, seasonal change or any other environmental factor.

In such cases , i usually advise my patients to take tablet levocetrizine in night time and fexofenadine in morning for atleast 1-2 weeks.
For topical application, mild to moderate potency steroids are advised.

Based on the available details, this is my best advice for you. You should discuss with your doctor and share my opinion, I am sure he/she will agree to my opinion. If you wish to discuss the problem further , you may please ask.
Stay Healthy.
