Hives/Urticaria: Hives are raised, often itchy, red welts on the surface of the skin. They are usually an allergic reaction to food or medicine. Causes, incidence, and risk factors when you have an allergic reaction to a substance, your body releases histamine and other chemicals into your bloodstream. This causes itching, swelling, and other symptoms. Antihistamines are the treatment of choice.
