What Causes Outbreak Of Hives All Over The Body With High Fever?
My son has recently had lice. I noticed around the time that he got the lice, that he developed hives all over his body. He had the hives for over a week with a fever of about 102 degrees. The fever would go with meds but as soon as the time was up , he would have the fever again. He was also complaining over his legs hurting him. On top of all that he has a cough and green mucus in his eyes. I am just trying to see if this is all related. Thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, Pediculosis (Lice) and Hives are two different condition and they both can not be related with each other unless it is being proved by clinical diagnosis, and these both can be managed separately for the lice "Gama benzene" lotion can be applied and fore have second generation antihistamine can be tried like "Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
