Hives, also known as urticaria, affects about 20 percent of people at some time during their lifetime. Hives can start as itching, followed by swollen, red welts. The itching may be mild to severe. Scratching, Alcoholic Beverages, exercise, and emotional stress may worsen the itching.
Chronic hives last more than six weeks. In many cases, the cause of chronic hives cannot be identified despite detailed history and testing. This condition is called idiopathic urticaria. The immune system is the cause of about 50 percent of hives that are not identified. In other cases, chronic hives may be associated with thyroid disease, other hormonal problems, or rarely cancer. In most cases, chronic hives will gradually disappear over time.
Infections include the common cold, urinary tract infections, strep throat, infectious mononucleosis (sometimes referred to as the 'kissing disease'), and hepatitis, or other viral infections.
The length of your continued experience with hives may suggest other underlying symptoms, which may as simple as diet or environmental elements such as laundry detergent, shampoos, etc. It would be advisable to initially consult with a GP.

Did anyone develop hives from herbalife I have them all over my arms and legs.?
I am currently trying to rule out Herbalife as the cause of my hives. At this point, I am adding in one thing at a time to try to figure out what ingredient is causing the hives. I had hives over my entire body that lasted about 8 days. On day 3, I went to an after hours clinic, and they prescribed a steroid shot and pills. After suffering for about a week, I went to my allergist. He suggested I stop taking all Herbalife plus supplements, then add one thing at a time to see what would bring them on again. So far, the morning shake with nothing else is enough to bring on a few hives. Each day, I am adding an additional supplement to see what will bring them on full bore.
