Can Hive Breakout Spread To Penis And Cause Strep-throat?

I m Mark! Age: 31 5:8 150 lbs. As a boy used to suffer from itchy-blisters all over my feet and uncommon sore throat irritations. These symptoms went away as I was growing up..., till recently came back all over my body now that I m 31. Was just wondering... I was recently diagnosed with hives on certain parts of my body such as fingers, arms, belly, back of my body etc... My dermatologist did a bio-lab test to find out what it was. It came back to be hives. So I guess I have had hives all of my life... Moving on... Now: Can hives spread to head of penis (cause blisters on that area) and or cause strep-throat? Are those two even related to the hives problem or is it something else such an STD infection? Yes, I m sexually active and I m very concerned about it... Note: My physician run blood tests on me to check for any STD infection and or HIV. Results come back negative all the time; but those little red spots/blisters on the head of my penis come and go back from time to time and the strep-throat problem does the same even after taking antibiotics. (AMOXICILLIN 875MG) Plz. I need a second opinion or advice... I would really appreciate your help. Anybody... Thanks Mark.

hello, yes that condition is associated with Lyme disease. when you have lyme disease for a long time your immunity tends to drop.this would leads to other oppotunistic infections also. those multiple infections of bugs would cause this black specks like pigmentation occuring whole body. you havent mentioned other symtoms. fatigue, deprssion, bodyaches and pains, watery eyes etc.
this condition can be treated but length of drug course would depend on individual factors. if you havent still met your GP regarding your skin condition you should.thank you
