What Do Rashes Around The Waist Indicate?

I ve had hives around my waist, on my bottom, chin and a couple other areas of my body for about 3 weeks. They come and go. Sometimes the rash is more severe and other times hardly anything at all. My general doctor looked at it and thought it was what I washed my bedding and clothes with. I changed to tide free and gentle and nothing has changed. the makes are large mostly oblong welts that itch, but have nothing coming from them. Can you help me?
