Any idea what this is? And how to get rid?

It's so itchy

No idea why it's appeared on my arms and chest

Oh no but it looks so sore! How are you getting on now?

Not sure. If it’s itchy, maybe worth taking an antihistamine?

Looks like hives - an allergic reaction to something. Take an antihistamine and check with chemist or GP

Thanks for the replies

The antihistamine is stopping the itchiness but it's not gone

Am going to pharmacist today

Thanks for checking in
She gave me fexofenadine, a high strength
She said it looked like the allergen exposure had passed but my immune response hadn't switched off.
So this is a higher strength antihistamine to kick it in to touch - it's already stopped feeling hot so fingers crossed it'll be gone in a day or two

I have my international modelling career to think of 🤣🤣🤣
