Hives
Welts are skin lesions that appear as raised, reddened, itchy areas, also known as hives; they usually arise suddenly and move from place to place.
Common causes: They may be due to allergic reactions to foods or medications, bites, infections, heat, stress, or, at times, no clear cause.
When should you see a doctor? It is advisable to consult if the welts recur, last a long time, or are accompanied by swelling of the lips, tongue, or difficulty breathing, which requires immediate attention.
Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist and the allergist help identify the trigger and care for the skin. Keeping a record of when they appear and consulting it with a professional makes it easier to find the cause.
