Hi community,

I would like to know is there any link between hives and hair loss. The hives would appear all over my body but not my head/scalp.

I was previous taking a medication which had the side effects of Urticaria and hair loss and at the same time I was having some laser tattoo removal done. At that point I was breaking out in hives and my hair thinned out so I have stopped the medication.

I have recently started my laser tattoo removal and I have broke out in hives again.

I would like to know is there any link between Urticaria and hair loss/hair thinning? I am really worried that my hair will thin more.

Please help me community.

Thanks in advance.
