I get hives every day. It always happens at night time when I lay in bed. The thing is that I wash my sheets and my blankets once a week along with my clothes all using the same laundry soaps and stuff, so I really don't understand why I'm getting them right before I go to sleep. Any way, lately they have been really bad and my hands are really sore from scratching at them so much. I have scars on my hands from it even. Does anyone know what I can do to get rid of hives? I'm already on medication for my allergies and it helps some but it doesn't help with the itching very well. I've been using benadyl cream extra strength for it. I can't take regular benadryl because I'm allergic to it. I usually listen to calming music to try to calm it down but sometime that doesn't even help!! I need help!! Any suggestions?
