Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain the symptoms of formation of recurring bumps and blotches over the body seems to be due to allergic reaction to any unknown allergen and it needs to be thoroughly evaluated and investigations to rule out allergies like Rast Test, Patch Test and Food challenge test etc can be done to rule out the exact cause of allergic reaction as antibodies against the specific allergen is formed in the blood of the individual and preventing exposure to the allergen can help..
An immunotherapy can also be instilled by an allergist to reduce the severity of allergic reaction..
As of now you can take anti-allergics like Levocetrizine or Benadryl, apply a steroid ointment over the rashes and bumps, do cold compresses and maintain a proper body hygiene..
Limit sun exposure..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
