These welts often resolve within 24 hours but can recur, sometimes affecting quality of life despite being generally harmless.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"357\" data-end=\"669\">The condition occurs when mast cells release histamine and other chemicals, causing fluid to leak from small blood vessels into the skin. This leads to swelling, redness, and itching. A hallmark feature is the fleeting nature of the welts\u2014disappearing without leaving marks, though new ones may emerge elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"671\" data-end=\"938\">Symptoms include raised, itchy hives and sometimes <strong data-start=\"722\" data-end=\"736\">angioedema<\/strong>, which involves deeper swelling, particularly in areas like the lips, eyelids, hands, or feet. If swelling affects the throat or tongue, it can become a medical emergency due to breathing difficulties.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"940\" data-end=\"989\">Urticaria is classified by duration and triggers:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"990\" data-end=\"1382\">\n<li data-start=\"990\" data-end=\"1121\">\n<p data-start=\"992\" data-end=\"1121\"><strong data-start=\"992\" data-end=\"1011\">Acute urticaria<\/strong> lasts less than six weeks and is often linked to allergens, infections, insect bites, medications, or stress.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1122\" data-end=\"1268\">\n<p data-start=\"1124\" data-end=\"1268\"><strong data-start=\"1124\" data-end=\"1145\">Chronic urticaria<\/strong> lasts longer than six weeks and may occur without an identifiable cause, though autoimmune factors are sometimes involved.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1269\" data-end=\"1382\">\n<p data-start=\"1271\" data-end=\"1382\"><strong data-start=\"1271\" data-end=\"1306\">Physical or inducible urticaria<\/strong> is triggered by physical stimuli such as pressure, cold, heat, or sunlight.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1384\" data-end=\"1680\">Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and avoiding triggers. <strong data-start=\"1446\" data-end=\"1464\">Antihistamines<\/strong> are the first-line treatment, helping relieve itching and swelling. For more severe cases, short-term <strong data-start=\"1567\" data-end=\"1586\">corticosteroids<\/strong> may be used.
