I've had this red boil or pimple thing on my hips for about a week now, and it's been super itchy. It's been really hot lately, and I'm sweating a lot, so I'm wondering if thats making it worse. Any idea what could be causing it?

I'm experiencing these hives every night, and it's really frustrating. My skin gets super itchy and bumpy, mainly around my hips, lower stomach, and the back of my hands. The weird thing is, they disappear by morning. I've had this issue for about 5-6 months now, and I don't seem to be allergic to anything. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

It sounds like you're experiencing chronic urticaria (hives), which can occur for various reasons, even without an obvious allergy. Stress, temperature changes, or other factors could be triggering it. I recommend avoiding known irritants, managing stress, and trying antihistamines for relief. If symptoms persist, please consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions or explore other treatment options.
