Can I develop an itchy skin rash along my jaw line and side of face from eating too much raw garlic?

I have four welts on my face along my jawline. It itches like the dickens. I dont know what caused it. To me it doesnt look ingrown hair or follicle related. That sort of bump doesn't itch to my knowledge anyway. The day the bumps were noticed I know i ate an extremely large amount of raw garlic. Like four or five cloves. Can raw garlic bring this on. What is the best way to treat this itchy rash on my face and get it moving along?

    This can happen if you're allergic to garlic, but it could be something else. An over-the-counter antihistamine should help with the itchy rash. If this happens again and you don't know what is causing it, then you should consider having an allergy test done.
