Are hives deadly?

I am suffering from hives and was told by doctor that they will last only 2-3 days. I am following my doctors’ orders and taking Benedryl and using a hydro-cortisone cream. But to my consternation it looks as if rashes are only spreading and getting worse in some areas. Is it possible that isn’t hives? Also I am very curious to know if hives are deadly.

Generally hives are not deadly, they can be only if they get in your throat, which can cause your throat to swell and close up. Hives can last anywhere from couple of days to couple of months to years also if you are unlucky…

If hydro-cortisone or benedryl is not working then tell your doctor to prescribe you anti-histamine. You can also try Zantac, which is an anti-histamine and acid reducer, after consulting your doctor. Tylenol in this case can also bring you some relief.

If you want to try any homeopathic treatment then you can try out Oxyhives, it helps to give relieve in hives. Its all natural that will not make you tired nor cause any side effects. You can also checkout Oxyhives review from online sites as well if you want to…
