Amazing Causes Of Hives Revealed

10. Hidden Allergens in Everyday Products

Why It Happens:
Chemicals or fragrances in soaps, lotions, shampoos, detergents, or dryer sheets may trigger hives in people with sensitive skin.

What to Try:
Switch to unscented, hypoallergenic personal care products. Always patch-test new items on a small area before full use.

When Should You See a Doctor?

While most hive outbreaks are short-lived and harmless, it’s important to seek medical help if:

• Hives last longer than six weeks (chronic urticaria)
• You experience swelling of the face, lips, or throat (a sign of possible angioedema)

Though hives are commonly linked to food allergies or insect stings, many other hidden factors could be at play. By staying alert to your surroundings, lifestyle habits, and health conditions, you’ll be better equipped to uncover your personal triggers. If over-the-counter remedies don’t work, talk to a healthcare provider to dig deeper.
