Skin Forum - Does Stress Cause Spots On the Skin

Three days ago it started with three raised slightly pink bumps on my shoulder, now they are on my breasts, neck, back and stomach. They are not chicken pocks, they are like semi wide, not really and slightly raised being slightly pink. They itch occasionally. I have never had anything like them before and I don't know if they are being caused from stress. I know that my boyfriend just told me he loved me and I am in my finals week for school. I don't know if that could be the cause.
Can someone help me?

I would wonder if you are getting a small case of hives from the stress.. It's certainly possible. They usually go away on their own when the stress decreases.
