Our 3yr. old Lab breaks out in hives due to an acute allergy from something. We had to rush him to the emergency vet last night coz he had tiny bumps on his skin all over his body- head, legs , back, everywhere. The vet said he had an acute allergy to something and gave him a Benadryl shot. No one has been able to tell us why this is happeneng and this is the second time it has occured. One vet suggested that we get his blood tested to see what he is allergic to and that they could give him a shot to cure it. Only problem is, it could cost 0 + thru the course of a year to get him treated that way, and we would have this problem for the rest of his life. We can’t afford to spend that kind of money every year but we want him to stop suffering. Is there any holistic remedy or herbal treatment for him to where he’s not having to take shots or pop pills for the rest of his life just to be himself?
He’s feeling miserable and I hate seeing him suffer like this. Please help.

My brother (an adult) said he woke up several weeks ago in the middle of the night with a rach and hives under his arms and in the crotch area. He hasn’t done anything different lately that would contribute to this condition. He says he sleeps with a heated matress pad which he keeps set at #2 setting. Could this change in temperature while he is sleeping cause this? Nothing in his diet or lifestyle seems different. Ever had anything like this?

I have hives that have been coming and going since last week. I already know what caused them and I’m taking generic benadryl which seems to be working but it takes awhile to kick in and once it wears off the hives come back instantly and it itches a lot! I’m afraid the hives will spread to my face! I can handle hives everywhere else but not the face. I have hives on my scalp which are even itchier than the hives elsewhere, I read that peppermint can help to reduce the inflammation and pain caused by hives so if I use an organic deep conditioning treatment with peppermint will that soothe my itching or will it aggravate it?
