Hello!

How to treat hives? My 22 month old daughter has hives all over her back, chest, belly and feet. It’s seems to be getting worse. Just wondering at what stage do I take her to the doctor? I don’t want to over react but I don’t want her to get really bad with it.

  • I would suggest seeing your doctor if getting worse,


  • See the doctor, better be safe than sorry


  • You had better check with the dr if it is getting increasingly worse, you don’t want the airways to be affected


  • Hives are an allergic reaction to something so it’ best to go to the GP & organise an allergy test (doesn’t hurt). Monitor what she eats & try to figure out what could be causing it. Grasses are another common allergen.


  • I would take her to the dr and get some cream, my sister used to break out in hives from an allergy to Tomatoes


  • Wanted to know aswell, thanks for posting.


  • take her to your doctor now as it could be allergies and unfortunately it could get worse maybe they will refer you to have some allergy testing done like my child who suffers with allergies it is very simple to do and really helps to avoid those triggers
