Hives treatment is one of the most commonly sought medical interventions. Each year, thousands of people develop a case of hives, or urticaria.

The raised, red or skin colored welts which characterize hives can cause extreme discomfort when they become very itchy, but generally hives are not serious.

For rare cases which become serious, emergency medical treatment may be necessary.

The first step in controlling hives is to identify the cause, if possible. If the source of the problem can be identified and avoided , try to avoid exposure to it in the future.

A mild case of hives often disappears on its own after a few hours. A longer-lasting case should respond to the manufacturer's recommended dosage of an over-the-counter oral antihistamine.

If your hives don't disappear in a few days, you should see a doctor. If you develop symptoms of angioedema or anaphylaxis, get medical help immediately.

For chronic or especially troublesome outbreaks of hives, your doctor will probably order a course of prescription antihistamines.

Treatment with oral corticosteroids will sometimes reduce swelling when antihistamines don't work, but they are usually reserved for more severe cases. If you have the subsurface swelling of angioedema, you may require hospitalization.
