A member asked:

I am having hives from past 2 years, first time i got it right after chicken pox.i have to daily consume 1 anti allergic to supress it.

See an allergist: The first step is to determine what you are allergic to, and this takes lengthy testing. Once that has been done, if an allergen has been identified, desensitization will also consume a great deal of time and may be expensive. A consultation with an allergist will provide an excellent overview of what you can expect.
