Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
It seems that you are having some allergic problem and the cause can be any environmental allergen or some new drug if any which you may have started. Sometimes even some new entrant into your diet can also lead to this.
Please try to localize the thing/allergen which can be responsible and if nothing can be pointed out, an anti allergic which you are already taking will solve the problem.
Please see a dermatologist if the problem recurs frequently. Also, use of deworming agents help sometimes. Please discuss with your dermatologist.
Also, please stop using any new cosmetic, perfume if you have started any.
Feel free to ask another query.
Regards
Brief Answer:
No harm in getting an opinion
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
All allergies are immune system related but your description of problem does not in my opinion warrant an immunologist consultation per se but if an immunologist appointment is available easily, there is no harm in getting his/her opinion.
But the problem should get resolved otherwise also with precautions and a dermatology opinion.
Feel free to ask another query.
