[|Human|] Hey.. I have been experiencing hives with itching since 10 days.. I had a cold and took augmentin 625mg for 5 days and from the next day, started getting the rashes (have tamen the same med. before but got no reaction then). The rashes are symmetrical, generally occur on my back, arms and neck, sometimes stomach.. They are very itchy.. Had taken levocetrizine on two days which helped in subsiding the rashes.. The rashes come and go in 15 -20 mins but redness persists for around half an hour.. They generally appear late in night or in early morning (when I am up at that time) they are subsiding now and occur less frequently, but surely in early morning.. What can be the cause?! Do I need to get some tests done?! Plz help. Thanks.
[|AI|]  Hi. Hives in your case could be due to infection related or Chat Doctor.  Hives are generally classified as Acute or Chronic depending on the duration of onset. Acute if less than 6 weeks and chronic if more than 6 weeks. In your case you have been experiencing it for 10 days... Means they are acute(Anyway take Levocetrizine 5 mg in the evening daily for 7-10 days. Take Fexofenadine 120 mg once daily during the day. Apply calamine. Get a few blood investigations like Complete Removal, Urine R/M, stool ova/cyst and Chest x-ray
