Breaking Out Itchy, Painful Welts Around Buttocks And Wrist, Swelling In Chin And Lips. Biopsy Showed Vasculitis. Suggest

sometimes I break out in welt like areas especially when I am tired or have been sick. They will come out when I have wore something that is kinda restrictive around my waist or if I sit to long they will come up around my lower buttocks or high hip area or if I type alot they will show up on my wrist. they itch at first and then they are so painful. this morning my chin area and lip was swollen The last for around 3 days and come and go but lately have been coming more often. I went to the doctor and had a biopsy on an area that the welt was and it was some kind of vasculitis but when I read about it, it doesn't fit to my symptoms. any suggestions
