How do they occur? Clusters of hives may appear as a reaction to an allergen such as food, medicine, or an insect bite or sting. Hives may also occur as a reaction to infection or emotional stress. Histamine, a chemical your body makes, is released in response to the irritant that causes the hives to form.
Hives can occur due to an acute allergic reaction to an allergen. Hives can be one sign of an allergic reaction or hives can be one of many signs of an allergic reaction. Hives can occur during severe allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis (anna-fih-LACK-sis).
