Hives are an inflammation of the skin triggered when the immune system releases #histamine. Acute hives occur at times after eating a particular food or coming ...in contact with a particular trigger. It can also be triggered by non-allergic causes such as heat or exercise, as well as medications, foods, insect bites or infections. Chronic #hives are rarely caused by specific triggers and so allergy tests are usually not helpful. Chronic hives can last for many months or years. Although they are often uncomfortable and painful, hives are not contagious. Find out more in this video. #skinallergy http://ow.ly/SSBO50Cj3qb See more

From the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology: Recently, several new medications, known collectively as biologics, have been approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe asthma. Biologics are unique in that they target a specific antibody, molecule, or cell involved in #asthma.
