10 Symptoms of Hives
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #4: Flesh Colored or Red
Another tell-tale sign that helps a medical professional to identify which type of rash they are dealing with is the color. A rash can range from being barely indistinguishable from the natural color of the patient’s skin to very dark or light patches that clearly stand out.
Hives tend to be a similar color to the patient’s flesh, although they can also become very red at times. The hives and the surrounding skin can also become redder from excessive scratching because of the itchiness. The colors can also help the doctor to clearly tell the extent of the rash or hives.
