Urticaria: Hives comprise their own category of eruption. They are unique primarily due to their transient nature (each hive will last for less than a day and will be replaced by new ones as they crop up). Rarely, lesions persist for greater than a day if an underlying immune complex disease or autoimmune disease is involved. Hives are slight raised welts surrounded by redness. No blistering, ulcer or pus
