Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The red bumps and redness of the surrounding area is urticaria. Urticaria refers to the formation of hives or weals or welts on the skin.
Usually itching but this does not always occur.
There are different types of urticaria. They are some persons who get this response in their skin with exposure to cold (cold urticaria), with exercise/stress/heat (cholinergic urticaria), water (aquagenic urticaria), sun (solar urticaria)
There is also (1)pressure urticaria where the welts/weals/hives form due to pressure on the skin or (2) dermatographisim - firm pressure on the skin causes the lesions
You may have one of these- pressure urticaria or dermatographism, based on the images attached.
Antihistamines are the main treatment particularly the non drowsy eg claritine, allegra, zyrtec
Other treatment is provided if needed
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions

Detailed Answer:
HI
You can use anti histamines if it occurs often or it is bothering you. To confirm this is the cause, you can see your GP or a dermatologist
In some people, not all, can be worsened by stress, tight fitting garments, being over tired, alcohol, NSAIDS (cataflam, ibuprofen, naproxen, etc)
