instruction: hello doctor I am a 17 year old female I believe that I have hives on my thighs I have them for about five to six days and they appear whenever the area gets hot I was using a blanket last night and the hives got red again but when it is cold they are not red and appear to be my skin color I used hydrocortisone the first three days and it helped and I was also wearing tight leggings while working all day the last two days I have been taking claritin and it has helped because the area is no longer itchy but the hives and bumps are still there should I take claritin tonight too how do I get rid of the bumps I assume that I should not keep on using claritin since I have used it for two days already
