Sounds like hives: The most common cause of acute hives is infection (often silent) resulting in activation of innate immune pathways in skin that trigger mast cells.Usually, hives resolve and we never know the cause. For other causes: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/137362-overview#aw2aab6b2b3aa. A virtual consult to discuss triggers can help. An antihistamine would help.
