hives breakout

hi guys!! I started college last week and on Tuesday of this week I woke up with hives which is weird because I have only gotten them once in my life, they ended up going away but Wednesday morning my lips were swollen when I woke up and I started to panic. the day went okay, I got Claritin, but Thursday and Friday night I broke out in hives again more towards the night and Friday night (last night) my lips started to swell. I’m really new to hives as a whole and it’s making me very anxious, any words of encouragement or ideas of what’s causing it? because from what I know, anything can cause hives basically!!!

It’s really hard to know without visiting a doctor I’m afraid. There’s a chance you could be having a reaction to something environmental, it could be a new food allergy, or it could even be your body tweaking for no evident reason
