Hives from a human bite
My son gets random hives on his body. We give him an antihistamine daily and it keeps the problem in check. However today he was playing with his sister where she pretends to bite him, not hard just playing, she did this three times on his arm. Within minutes his arm came up in hives in the shape of each bite mark, then a few on his face. He also suffers with sores in his mouth? Is there a connection or allergy to saliva? Should we get him checked?
