A member asked:

Hives around mouth is there some type of allergic reaction?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds like: You have contact allergy to something you ate, or something else you placed around your mouth, such as cosmetics, toothpaste, mouthwash. If it persists for longer than one day, go see a doctor. If you have breathing problems along with it, right away to the doctor.
