Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be an allergic reaction to some thing like food,clothes, wool, soap etc.It may also be a fungal infection. Try to avoid and observe the things and try to find the allergen.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to to my patient with such symptoms levocitrizine, montelekast , and cifixime.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. thank you.
