Well hives is from an allergic reaction.
Along with the itching. Did your doctor prescribe any steroids?
If he/she didn't, they must have a real good reason why not.
Sounds like you need to knock down the symptoms and then worry about the cause.

It is usually caused by an allergy to something. Not much you can do except wait for the allergy tests. Also use an all natural laundry soap and stay away from the harsh ones you find in the grocery stores.

I get hives from stress. You can get it from food or something you got on your skin also. I would look it up on WEB MD and they could tell you every thing you would want to know about hives.

Histamines, that is why doctors prescribe antihistimines for relief.
