What Causes Bits/hives All Over The Body?
My son is 5 years old and is using Advair HAF 2 in the morning and 2 at night. He has what look like bits/hives all over his body. We clean everything of his and even got him a new bed. He still have these bits/hives all over. His father and I don t have any bits/hives so what can be wrong?
