I'm only getting hives on my hands and feet. They start as small red dots and then spread out into a circle. It's super itchy, and even though I take antihistamines like cetrizine, they only give me temporary relief. Omnacortil works to clear them up, but I can't use it every day because of its side effects. What can I do about this?

To manage recurring hives on hands and feet, consider consulting a dermatologist or allergist to identify underlying causes, and explore alternative treatments like immunotherapy, sublingual immunotherapy, or medications like montelukast or cyclosporine, while also maintaining a symptom journal and avoiding potential triggers.

I've had pretty large breasts since middle school and hit puberty fast, so I was never really comfortable with my body. I ended up wearing sports bras to make my breasts look smaller for the longest time. Now, Ive got this discoloration around my breasts from sweating and chafing. Is there any way to get rid of it?
