About a week after the birth of my now 3 year old, i developed a skin condition which for the past 3 years i have thought was hives. However, after viewing pictures of hives, i realise that this may not be what i have.
I do not get rounded, raised rashes as is typical of hives, i get either grouped or single long, raised welts that itch like heck, are often accompanied with swelling (if on my hanRAB, feet or face), last for about 30 minutes to an hour, disappear, but reappear elsewhere. It is often worse when i am hot or tired or emotional.
If i scratch myself, i break out in these welts, if i rub my face, my face and eyes swell up, if i bump against something, the bumped area on my body will immediately develop a welt or welts.
Does anyone have a clue what this could be. When it began, it was accompanied with asthma symptoms. Both sets of symptoms are getting progressively worse.
