Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi..this condition is known as urticaria. You should consult a dermatologist who can exactly find out the exact cause of urticaria. Your dermat will suggest you few basic investigations like complete hemogram, absolute eosinophil counts, serum IgE levels, urine routine tests.
Start taking anti histaminic like Tab Levocetrizine 5 mg at bed time daily .This you have to take continuosly for few weeks for full relief.
Update about your test results here so that i can help you further.
Thanks..
