Description
Hives appear on the skin as part of an allergic reaction to a food or an environmental
allergen such as pollen, dust mites, or wool. Hives may also
occur due to exercise or from becoming cold.
Symptoms
Hives are red, raised welts that are often quite itchy, hot, and swollen.
Complications
In a serious case of acute hives, anaphylaxis (characterized by intense itching,
swelling, and difficulty breathing due to constriction of the bronchioles)
can be life-threatening and requires emergency medical attention.
Hives may become chronic or may occur repeatedly if the allergen that
causes the body to react is not eliminated.
Homeopathic Medicine
If there is tremendous swelling, give Apis first. I For hives due to bee
stings, give Apis. I If itching is the main symptom and the person is very
restless, give Rhus toxicodendron. I If the hives sting and there is not significant
swelling, consider Urtica urens.
