Brief Answer:
Oral antihistamine and soothing lotion
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.
Perhaps you have Hives or Urticaria which manifests as sudden onset of itchy welts with surrounding flare. The rashes are evanescent I.e they last for a few hours and then recur again. I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g Cetrizine 10mg tablet once a day for a few days. In addition you may use a soothing lotion e.g calamine lotion to calm down the rashes.
Hope I have answered your query.. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
