Getting Hives After Having Cold And Cough. Is It Possible To Be Allergic To Cold And Cough Medication?
Is it possible to be allergic to cold and cough medication? I get hives every time I suffer from a cold and cough. Can it be that my resistance is low and the hives come out then. I also get hives when I am feeling some stress but they are easily managed on these occasions. The hives are usually only on my inner arms and wrists during these occurence. During a cold I have hives on my abdomen, inner arms, waist , upper legs, on my hand and cheek . Hand and cheek are new
