Seems like an allergic reaction to food or synthetic clothes. Please get your blood checked for Hb CBC. Avoid non veg, sour, nuts cheese chinese. Wear only cotton clothes. Do not scratch. Need pictures of rashes to help you further. Take care. Stay healthy. Regards, Dr. Jolly Shah DNB Dermatology, Mumbai.
