Itchy skin with hives
Since three days I have been suffering from severe itching on the body. It started all of a sudden. The itching is very severe during night and random surges during day time. Whenever there is an itching sensation, that area is getting heated up, a red swollen patch appears and after sometime it disappears. What can be the cause and how to get rid of it? I am feeling the itching all over the body, arms, legs, thighs, back, neck. Please help

It will be better if you send a pic of the problem so that I can assess the severity and initiate the treatment.
