Dr. Lera talks about hives on pit bulls with Axel, a 17weekold male pit puppy.
Urticaria or hives is a skin condition characterized by raised red skin welts. Urticaria is commonly caused by an allergic reaction. These swollen welts can appear anywhere on the body, including the face, lips, tongue, throat, and ears. The hives are usually very itchy. Urticaria is generally caused by direct contact with a substance that causes an allergic reaction. These substances include insect bites, food, pollens, molds, vaccinations, and medications.
