Whats Causing Itchy Rashes On The Neck, Shoulders After Working Out In The Gym And Which Reduces After Taking Allergy Tabs?

I have recently been getting a rash on my neck after I work out at the gym and it itches. then I go to the Jacuzzi and sauna. Afterwards I notice the rash is on my shoulders and near my bra straps and it looks like large mosquito bites. It itches like crazy even after I shower. I've taken two allergy pills when it happens and that takes care of it. Today, my palms started to itch really bad. It finally went away with washing and crème. Then I noticed a large mosquito bite on my wrist, but didn't itch as bad. It stopped and not sure what caused that?
