You have Dermographism ( a mild form of hives or urticaria) Most of the time urticaria (hives)  are manifestations of an allergic reaction triggered by medications, foods, infections, certain physical agents like heat, cold, water, sun, other allergens and systemic illnesses. So the first thing in treatment of  urticaria is find the trigger.  The  work-up includes blood tests, urine, stool to check for parasites, and x-rays of the chest, sinuses and teeth.  A prick or scratch test to test for airborn or food allergens is also in order. If nothing is found on the workup, then the relief is mostly symptomatic with antihistamines.
