Dermatologist 's  Response
The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is urticaria which is a hypersensitivity reaction. Topical soothing lotions like calamine lotion can be used along with oral antihistamines like fexofenadine after consulting your dermatologist. Avoid fermented food and foods containing artificial fragrances as they are known to induce urticaria. Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy. Regards
