What are Chronic Hives?
  • Hives (urticaria) are red, itchy welts that are
    the result of a skin reaction. The welts differ
    in size and appear and fade several times as the
    reaction runs its course.The condition is
    considered chronic hives if the welts appear for
    more than six weeks and recur usually over months
    or years. Often, the cause of chronic hives is
    unclear.Chronic hives could be very
    uncomfortable and interfere with sleep and daily
    activities. For many people, antihistamines and
    anti-itch medications offer relief.

Cause Of Chronic Hives
  • The welts that come with hives arise when
    specific cells release histamine and other
    chemicals into your bloodstream.
  • Doctors usually cannot identify the reason for
    chronic hives or why acute hives sometimes turn
    into long-term problems. The skin reaction might
    be triggered by
  • Pain medications
  • Insects or parasites
  • Infection
  • Scratching
  • Heat or cold
  • Stress
  • Sunlight
  • Exercise
  • Alcohol or food
  • Pressure on the skin, similar to a tight waistband
