Red hives can be caused by various factors such as allergies to food, insects, and environmental factors, as well as stress and medication side effects. It is advisable to consult a doctor when symptoms appear.
There are many possible causes of red hives, from what people put into their bodies to the emotions they feel. Hives can be caused by physical things in the environment and by the foods that are consumed. Additionally, the emotional and physical events that lead to stress can cause unpleasant physical side effects that aren’t limited to hives. Even some drugs that are considered safe in most cases can cause negative physical symptoms such as red hives. It is often advisable to see a doctor when symptoms such as hives appear.
Many food and other environmental causes can lead to allergies which in turn result in red hives. For example, bee stings and bites from other insects can cause an allergic reaction that can lead to red hives and other negative side effects. Other seemingly trivial environmental causes, such as dogs, cats or dust, can trigger allergic reactions and lead to hives. What people eat can also lead to allergic reactions and hives. In fact, many people develop allergies to foods like tree nuts like peanuts or seafood like shellfish.
Another condition that can result in the physical presentation of red hives is stress. Stress is a biological condition that can be caused by a wide variety of physical and emotional problems and, in turn, can cause many physical or emotional problems. This condition typically arises when faced with nagging or important threats or responsibilities that a person does not feel they can adequately or comfortably deal with, consciously or subconsciously. When a stressful situation arises, a person may react in a variety of mental and physical ways, including hives, overeating, and nervous behaviors. Stress can lead to particularly serious medical conditions, such as ulcers and mental illness.
Many medications, both for serious and minor conditions, list red hives as a potential side effect of their use. With some medications, hives are a minor side effect. Other medications, however, may list red hives as a serious side effect that can indicate a dangerous reaction to the drug, and so caution is often advised. Common pain relievers like aspirin can also cause hives, as can prescription drugs and antibiotics like penicillin. Additionally, there are many other over-the-counter and prescription medications that are commonly taken every day that have the potential to cause hives.
