Hi, From your description you seem to be having urticaria. This is an allergic reaction that can happen to anything beneath the aun including the sun. Most commonly it happens to food items or medications. Any source of infection in the body, heat, sunrays can also cause it. There are medications to relieve the symptoms but sometimes the course can be prolonged requiring investigations. You can consult through practo for further treatment and guidance.
