Hi..
Thanks for writing to us..

You have developed hives due to allergic reaction, the cause of hives can be a number of things like any food or medication, bug bite, poison ivy, any skin cosmetic or detergent or soap etc..
For now take anti allergics like Levocetrizine or Benadryl..
Apply a steroid ointment like Triamcinolone Acetonide over the hives.
Apply ice packs to reduce irritation and itching.
You can also apply Calamine or Caladryl lotion ..
If the symptoms does not improve or recur you should get an Allergic test done for confirmation of the cause..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
