Hello,
I advise to consult further with an allergy specialist and to run allergy testing to determine what the cause of hives is. Furthermore, should run stool examination for ova/parasites.
Think over what new medications or cosmetics you've been using recently. Should continue taking allergy medication like Benadryl and steroid shots for a few more days until the hives are well controlled.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
