A member asked:
When i stand for any period of time (< 1 hour), i get large, red, itchy raised blotches on my legs and ankles, similar to hives. how to prevent this??

Hives: This could be a form of pressure urticaria (hives caused by pressure). Try taking long-acting non-sedating antihistamine like zyrtec or allegra once a day and see if symptoms subside.
