Your symptoms could be due to a condition called dermatographia (skin writing), in which the skin reacts strongly to light pressure or touch, causing swelling and redness. Allergies, certain medications, or underlying medical conditions may also contribute. Avoid scratching or rubbing your skin, use gentle, fragrance-free moisturisers, and take antihistamines (such as cetirizine or loratadine) if advised by a doctor. It is important to see a dermatologist to confirm the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
