What Causes Large Welts And Lumps On Back Arms And Feet?

I get large welts and lumps on my back arms and feet that itch like crazy but only of a night. I have to scratch tops of these welts to stop the itch. My gp tried scabies cream but I knew it wasn t that, but desperate enough to try anything. I am also 50 years old and wondering if menopause can be the cause?
