What is Urticaria & Why Does It Occur?
Urticaria, commonly known as hives, is a skin condition where red, raised, itchy welts suddenly appear on the skin. These can last from a few hours to weeks and may recur frequently. It occurs when the body releases histamine in response to triggers like allergens, food, infections, or even stress.
