I've broken out in hives 7-8 days after surgery twice. been off all meds on day 3. did or ate nothing new. what could cause the hives?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hives: This is a complex question best answered by an allergist who will review all meds received during and after surgery to determine the cause of your hives. You should get all records for both surgeries from anesthesiologists and surgeons before your consultation.
