Suggest Remedy For Itchy Rashes

I had a rash last night on both inside wrists. Also itching. I sprayed benadryl and took oral benadryl and they went away. Now my lower abdomen, specifically along my 7 year old c-section scar, is red and itching. I just sprayed it with benadryl and it is feeling better. Several other places on my body are red and itchy as well. What is going on?
