Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Yes, this does sound like an allergy. It is often difficult to identify what you are allergic to apart from things like sea food which cause allergies in a lot of people. The white marks could be healing skin ( since you said you had a pretty bad reaction last month) . I would suggest you have Tablet Cetrizine 10 mg once a day for 2-3 days and you should be fine.
Hope this helps
Regards
