Re: HIVES

Usually hives are a reaction to an allergy....have you eaten anything recently that is new?? That really stinks!!

you can treat them with some benadryl and cortizone cream should help as well...my son just went through this as a result of a peanut allergy.

Good luck!! Chat Icon

I've heard that lots of people are getting them lately and there's a possibility it's airborne...
