Why Do I Have A Pink Warm Rash On My Arms?

During the night I'm woke up itching mostly my left hip. I fell back to sleep and carried on as normal this morning. I've been up since 7 totally forgot about the itching episode. I am at work now and noticed a pink (not red) smooth rash on both of my arms which is warm to the touch.
It's also on my hip right

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

You seem to have Hives. I suggest you use a soothing lotion e.g. calamine lotion to calm down the rashes. In addition, I suggest you take an oral antihistamine e.g. cetirizine or loratadine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kakkar S., Dermatologist
