Hives are very common, especially in people who have experienced other allergic reactions, including hay fever and angioedema. The welts occur on the surface of the skin, usually in batches. The release of histamine and other chemicals into the bloodstream (part an allergic response) causes the itching, localized swelling, and other symptoms. |
Many substances, called allergens, can trigger an allergic response resulting in hives. Common allergens include: |
-
Medications
-
Foods (such as berries, shellfish, fish, nuts, eggs, milk, and others)
-
Pollen
-
Animal dander (especially cats)
-
Insect bites
|
Hives may also develop after infections or illness (including autoimmune diseases, leukemia, and others). There seems to be a hereditary tendency toward the development of hives. |
Some less common causes of hives include: |
|
| There are two distinct types of urticaria: |
-
Acute urticaria is often caused by an allergy to food or medication and can last between several hours and six weeks.
-
Chronic urticaria is diagnosed if the rash persists for six weeks or longer, the underlying cause is then usually not due to a food allergy.
|
Urticaria can be classified into two categories: Immunologic (Allergic) and Non-Immunologic. |
Immunologic Urticaria is the least common form. It is caused by the immune system's over-reaction to foods, drugs, infection, insect stings, blood transfusions or other substances. |
Foods such as eggs, nuts, and shellfish, and drugs such as Penicillin and Sulfa are common causes of Allergic or Immunologic Urticaria. |
Recent studies also suggest that some cases of Chronic Urticaria are caused by autoimmune mechanisms, when the patient develops immune reactions to components of his or her skin. |
Non-Immunologic Urticaria are those types of urticaria where a clear-cut allergic basis cannot be proven; these take many forms: |
-
Dermographism is urticaria that develops when the skin is stroked with a firm object.
-
Cold-induced Urticaria appears after a person is exposed to low temperatures - for example, after a plunge into a swimming pool or when an ice cube is placed against the skin.
-
Cholinergic Urticaria, which is associated with exercise, hot showers and/or anxiety, is a form of hives that is related to release of certain chemicals from parts of the nervous system that controls such body functions as blood pressure and heart rate.
-
Pressure Urticaria develops from the constant pressure of constricting clothing such as sock bands, bra straps, belts or other tight clothing.
-
Solar Urticaria arises on parts of the body exposed to the sun; this may occur within a few minutes after exposure.
|
Some cases of Non-Immunologic Urticaria may be caused by non-allergic reactions to Aspirin and, possibly, certain food dyes, sulfites, and other food additives. |
In many cases, particularly in Chronic Urticaria, the trigger for the problem can't be found; in this instance it is called Idiopathic Urticaria. |
