Brief Answer:
Take Benadryl 3-4 times/day
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your health query.
I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.
What you are describing most probably are hives which are the most common skin symptom of allergy. Lamisilat that you are using is the treatment of ring worm but not the allergy.
I would recommend to take Tab Benadryl(Diphenhydramine) 3-4 times/day for next 2-3 days (you may require a prescription from your local doctor), as it will relive a lot the itching and stop the hives from getting worse. If worse or not better, then I would recommend seeing a Dermatologist, because it may be a viral systemic infection or even a bacterial one.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
