Last year I randomly got hives on my face, around my mouth, so I was referred to an allergist. We did the prick tests for environmental allergies, as I have no known food allergies, and one known med allergy (sulfa). They all came back negative, and the hives never returned.
I do suffer from allergy symptoms regularly, such as sneezing, congestion, runny nose. The allergist suggested rhinitis, but I haven't really done anything about it. Is it worth investigating further? It's annoying, but not debilitating, except for a couple times a year I get worse symptons that resolve on their own after a couple days of rest.
