Hi Faith,
no none of my hives have ever turned into freckles or anything like
that. This started after my endo started causing pain and problems,
which may just me coincidence. But it started to worry me so I looked
up hives after hot shower and found out that it is quite common for
people to have a reaction to heat like that, after a hot shower, or
after working out, or after a sauna, ect. It's just a reaction from the
body's temperature going up too quickly, after it cools down hives are
gone. I can go outside and if I get hot at steady pace I get no hives,
just hot water does it to me. Thank you for your concern and letting me
know about this condition, I will still look it up though, now I am
courious about it, I don't think it's what I have but still, I'm weird
and interested now.
