How to Treat Hives

Hives are a very common and unpleasant experience. One out of five people will have hives at some point in life. They can occur on any part of your skin, but hives on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet are rare. A hive is a round, spongy bump that changes rapidly from minute to minute. The area around the hive is usually red. Hives can be a few millimeters across, or they can be enormous, covering an entire arm or leg.

Hives erupt after capillaries in the skin dilate and allow fluid to leak out into surrounding tissues in the upper layer of the skin. Hives go away when the body absorbs the fluid. You can distinguish a hive from an emerging bruise or pustule because when you press on a hive, the skin will temporarily blanch, or turn white.

The reason hives itch is because of the swelling in the epidermis, which is richly supplied with nerve endings. The itchiness may vary from person to person and from episode to episode in people who get hives often. The chain of events leading up to itchy hives begins when a chemical called histamine, which is found in special white blood cells called mast cells, leaks out into the surrounding tissue. The holes through which the histamine leaks are too small to allow red blood cells through, which is why you don’t have bruising along with hives.

Hives that are severe and accompanied by wheezing or difficulty breathing are a medical emergency, and you should seek medical help immediately.

Hives are usually caused by substances you commonly find in everyday life. Sometimes foods cause hives, as do medications, food additives, insect bites, exercise, and stress.

Ordinary, itchy hives will sometimes resolve themselves, but sometimes people suffer repeated bouts of hives that are annoying enough to interfere with everyday life.
