urticaria
Urticaria, also known as hives, is a skin condition characterized by raised red or white welts or bumps on the skin. These often itch and may burn or sting. Urticaria can occur anywhere on the body and can vary in size from as small as a pinpoint to as large as a dinner plate. It can be a result of the body's reaction to certain allergens, physical stimuli, or for no identifiable reason. Episodes can last for a few hours to several weeks, and while it is usually harmless, in severe cases it can interfere with breathing and require emergency treatment.
