How To Treat Torso Hives?
weight 260....female....47 yrs old.....started BP pills 4 months ago, and since have had torso hives (chicken pox style) just before and during menstrual period. 1st month was on back-mid drif right side, 2nd month moved to left, third was in the center and not as bad.This month the hives have spread out and cover my back, a few on the stomach, hips, buttocks and upper arms. Also, glands in both arm pits are swollen and red, hard to the touch, pain level in arm pits like over-worked muscle.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that if this is allergic condition then in my opinion you have to wait for few days this would come around on its own without any medicine, if the symptom does not improved then you can try antihistamine and the best drug is Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day, take care and have a nice day.
