How do you cure infant hives?

Infant hives typically resolve on their own within a few days or weeks. In some cases, your doctor may recommend:

- *Antihistamines*

*Antihistamines* block the action of histamine, a chemical that is involved in the allergic reaction that causes hives. Oral antihistamines can help to relieve itchiness and reduce the severity of the hives.

- *Hydrocortisone cream*

This type of cream contains a mild steroid that can help to reduce inflammation, swelling and itchiness and speed up the healing process.
