Maybe: Itchy bumps may be hives, but they may not. Does each individual hive disappear completely within 24-48hrs (even if replaced by another spot soon after)? If yes, then try an antihistamine to see if it helps. If not, then I would suspect another rash such, like fungal. Need more information to better predict. Consider virtual consult or have it evaluated by local Dermatologist/primary doc.

Need to see Dermtolo: You need to see a dermatologist. This could be allergic, could be infection like viral, are you could be related to more study process. Ask your physician to have you see a dermatologist.
