Suffering From Hives, Itching, Bruising Outside Thighs. Taking Zoloft, Zurtec. Treatment?

I have been getting hives for the past 3 months all over my body. I take Zurtec everyday. Somedays are better then others and some days I still itch . Yesterday my thighs got hives and itched and now I have bruising on the outside of my thighs. What should I do? What could it be? I also am taking Zoloft for Anxiety I started with.

Hello.Hives need to be investigated for the cause.If identified and avoided,they can be brought under control to a large extent.Drugs used are for symptomatic relief only.Check with your dermatologist if you need an additional anti allergy pill.
