A member asked:

How come i get hives during an asthma attack?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

Good ?: This is very uncommon and i can't recall having seen anyone with these two conditions occurring together on a consistent basis. Are these episodes related to pet exposure? Some times excessive mold exposure may trigger asthma or hives and perhaps that may be the best guess.
