Frequently Asked Questions About Hives

What are hives and what causes them? −
Hives (urticaria) are raised, itchy welts on the skin caused by the release of histamine in the body. They can be triggered by allergens, certain foods, medications, infections, stress, or sometimes with no identifiable cause at all.
How are hives treated? +
Antihistamines are the main treatment, working by blocking the histamine that causes the itching and swelling. For persistent or severe cases, your clinician may recommend a higher dose or a different type of antihistamine.
How quickly can I expect relief after starting treatment? +
Many people notice reduced itching and swelling within a few hours of taking an antihistamine. If hives are chronic, it may take a few days of regular use to see the full benefit.
Do I need a physical appointment to get treatment? +
No, you can complete a short online consultation, and a clinician will review your symptoms and history to confirm the most suitable treatment before it's prescribed.
Are there any side effects of the treatment? −
Some antihistamines can cause mild drowsiness, dry mouth, or headache, though many modern options are non-drowsy. Your clinician can recommend a type that best suits your daily routine.
How long do hives usually last? +
Acute hives often settle within a few days to a couple of weeks. Chronic hives, which last longer than 6 weeks, may need ongoing management and further assessment to identify possible triggers.
When should I seek urgent medical help for hives? +
If hives are accompanied by swelling of the face, lips, or throat, difficulty breathing, or dizziness, seek emergency medical attention immediately, as this can indicate a severe allergic reaction.
Can hives come back after treatment? +
Yes, hives can recur, particularly if the underlying trigger is still present or unidentified. Keeping a note of possible triggers can help you and your clinician manage future flare-ups more effectively.
