Hives Around 8 o'clock
by Yep That's Me, Oct 01, 2006 12:00AM
For the past couple of nights, I've been getting hives on my stomach, arms (especially my upper arms), neck, chin, ears, and the most painful spots, my fingers and under the skin of my palms. I have no idea where this could be coming from. I haven't been changing my lyfestyle. At first, I thought it was this new laundry detergent, and But I changed all my clothes, taken plenty of showers, and yet it still comes at night. One day, it happened when i went to work, and it was all over my legs. But the past couple of nights, it would be around 8 o'clock whether I was at the mall or at home. I tried doing the same thing through out the day (which was just chilling in my room, I called into work) and nothing happened until around 8. I did some research, and by reading some stuff, I don't think it's allergies. I just need some advice, because this is killing me...
Thanks

I give him antihistamine which seems to work temporarily to alleviate the itch.
I would just get a referral & visit an allergist & get scratch tested. This way, you should be able to figure out exactly what is causing this reaction. People tend to get new allergies as they get older - and perhaps something new has come up for you.
It really could be anything - getting tested will be able to pinpoint that.
Good lucK!!!
