See your doctor!: Good morning, urticaria (hives) is a difficult condition even for immunologists to make a diagnosis. Most hives are caused by viruses promoting an instability in the functioning of immune system, and should subside in due course. Some underlying conditions and allergies need investigation by your physician. If symptoms persist, tests need to be done as a guidance for future treatment. See a doctor.
