For years, I've had to explain that the welts/wheals on my skin were from scratching, etc as opposed to other causes. I've written on my skin to prove my point. While somewhat entertaining to others, I'm extremely concerned about a flare-up on my wedding day. Does anyone have any advice? I've never taken anything for it and just recently discovered the medical term.
