When i scratch or bump my skin, on any part of my body, a raised hot white itchy rash develops. What could cause this?

In brief: Hypersensitive skin

This could represent dermographism, where you can cause welts on your skin with pressure, like writing.

Physical urticaria, or hives, also possible. I usually have someone try an oral anti-histamine for this problem.
