According to your description, it may be cholinergic urticaria, which is a type of wheals that people often call.

If you are allergic to this chemical substance , allergic reactions may occur.
Cholinergic urticaria
Cholinergic urticaria is a type of wheals that people often call. When the body temperature increases slightly due to heat, mental stress, ingestion of hot food or drinks, or after exercise, the increased blood flow to the brain's temperature regulation center excites cholinergic nerves and releases acetylcholine. It is precisely because the body's response to acetylcholine is Allergy to a chemical substance, we call the symptoms caused by allergy cholinergic urticaria.

Treatment of cholinergic urticaria
General treatment
At present, there is no specific treatment for urticaria in Western medicine, and oral antihistamine drugs are mostly used. There are many corticosteroid drugs for temporary suppression, such as oral western medicine, oral hormones, topical solution lotions, emulsions, pastes, oils, ointments, emulsions, coatings, tinctures and plasters, etc. Long-term or large-dose external use of corticosteroids can lead to addiction and drug dependence. The most common condition is that the condition improves after taking the medication. Once the medication is stopped, the primary lesion at the site of the medication worsens. When hormones are restarted, the above-mentioned conditions improve or disappear; if the medication is stopped again, rebound symptoms will reoccur and become more serious than before.
In order to avoid the pain after discontinuing medication, patients completely rely on hormones. The skin will become significantly thinner, the capillaries will dilate, and sometimes purpura will appear. Especially, deeper persistent erythema may appear on the face. The longer the hormone is used, the more severe the rebound allergy will be. It can cause skin thinning, fragility, atrophy, telangiectasia, purpura, fungal infection, acneiform dermatitis, etc. Become vulnerable to injury; mild hirsutism, hyperhidrosis, subcutaneous bleeding, and difficulty in wound healing may also occur. In particular, some skin diseases are not suitable for the use of hormone preparations.
If treated with corticosteroids such as Corticosteroids and Prednisone by injection or oral administration in a short period of time, it can also cause obesity, hirsutism, acne, elevated blood sugar, high blood pressure, edema, and hematoma. Complications such as decreased potassium, menstrual disorders, osteoporosis, aseptic osteonecrosis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, etc. It can also cause certain damage to the kidneys, such as aggravating glomerular disease, proteinuria, aggravating glomerulosclerosis, easily causing renal calcification or stones, inducing or aggravating renal infectious diseases, causing hypokalemic nephropathy, etc. It can also cause a series of metabolic disorders of the body's sugar, protein, fat, water and electrolytes, etc., destroy the body's defense system and suppress the immune response ability.
If some patients use corticosteroids during treatment and become dependent on the hormones, the rebound of the primary lesions and secondary side effects may be aggravated after the drug is stopped, which may cause the patient to develop It is a great pain. The family members of patients should do a good job in thinking about the patients, have a full understanding of the effects and side effects of hormones, and enhance their confidence in overcoming the disease. And in the case of correct selection of treatment drugs and gradual reduction until withdrawal of corticosteroids, methods and traditional Chinese medicines should be used to combat the above side effects and adverse reactions. Achieve the goal of safe and complete cure of diseases.
