    Anyone can get hives.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

    It can hit you out of the blue after a delicious meal. Suddenly, you see a raised bump on your face!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    You are happily riding your bicycle over a<\/span>\u00a0bumpy road and your palms start to itch. You wonder why?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Sometimes it itches, other times it turns from pink to red and seems to spread from a small spot to a red patch that resembles an \u2018island\u2019.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you are a seasoned sufferer of hives, you can feel it c<\/span>oming and you kind of expect it.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    But if you have never had hives, the red patch that feels like a rash can cause some distress especially if it appears on visible parts of the body such as red patches on your face.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    This writer gets small red patches under\u00a0<\/span>the eye(s) whenever an allergic reaction is triggered by the food that he consumes. The spot of red patch on his face can \u2018grow\u2019, if it is severe at times, such that the whole eye(s) looks swollen. And yes, the writer himself can feel it as it happens.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Is\u00a0<\/span><\/b>it a rash? Is it eczema<\/a>? It is Hives!<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Symptoms of Hives<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

    Hives, also called Urticaria or nettle rash, is the immune system\u2019s response to allergens. A protein called histamine is released into the bloodstream.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    The tiny blood capillaries swell and leak plas<\/span>ma resulting in red, itchy skin with bumps of different shapes and sizes.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Hives vary in appearance depending on the cause, and it differs from person to person.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    When the rash enlarges and connects, welts are formed. Sometimes the welts merge to form plaqu<\/span>es which can be the size of a plate! \u2018Blanching\u2019 is a process whereby the pink or\u00a0<\/span>red looking<\/span>\u00a0rash turns white when pressed.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Hives can suddenly appear as skin-<\/span>colored<\/span>, pink, or red itchy skin with bumps and disappear in a matter of minutes, hours or days.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
