...I had EVLT (endovenous laser therapy) for vericose and spider veins. That very same evening I broke out with enormous raised, red, welts. They started on my upper left thigh -- measuring about 4" X 7" in size. Then they spread to my other thigh, stomach, and untimately my feet -- major swelling. The doctors blamed it on Lamisil -- a drug I had been taking orally for the last week for toe nail fungus. They assumed it was an allergic reaction. I have my doubts now, since it has been over three months now, and the welts will come and go without warning. The Lamisil is out of my system now. The laser therapy is the thing that seemed to "trigger" the welts. It's almost as if the laser therapy resurrected something dormant in my system that is no longer dormant and continues to rear its head without warning. So, I am convinced that laser therapy CAN provoke hives/welts. (By the way, I hav been to several doctors -- PCP, and allergist. They are dumbfounded and can't find a cause . I did blood work...but I have always been suspicious of the laser therapy timing of these events.

Stinging bugs in Northwest Indiana that leave large red welts?
You may be encountering insects like wasps, yellow jackets, or hornets, which can sting and leave large red welts. These insects can be aggressive when their nests are disturbed, so it's best to avoid them and seek professional help for removal if needed. Applying ice, aloe vera, or over-the-counter antihistamine cream can help alleviate the swelling and discomfort from the sting.

What injuries come from 200fps airsoft guns?
I had a bigsauer 240 fps airsoft gun. When i first bought it, when shot with the gun pressed to my skin, it left a large welt that hurt pretty badly, but did not break the skin. When shooting from normal distances you can expect minor welts at points of contact, but the pain will fade quickly. Enjoy ^_^
