A member asked:
For my whole life whenever i get a fever, i get hives that last for weeks and i just get sicker. it has been this way forever. why is this?

See allergist: Although hives are often triggered by a viral infection, it is unusual to see this problem repeatedly. I suspect that the fever is part of the manifestation of your hive condition and suggest that you consult an allergist to get an evaluation.
