    That combined with the going away after a few hours is exactly how mosquito bites look and behave with me.

    This ^^^ is very true. You could get mosquito bit and never see the little buggers. Looks like a bite to me too. If not mosquito, maybe flea? Try getting some its either caldryl or calamine (its way to early) I can't remember what its called, but its for itch. Like of you get poison ivy or something. Any grocery store should have it. If I remember right from when I had chicken pox, it was pink. May not be the case now, as that was along time ago. But try dabbing that on when you notice one to help stop the itch.

    When your looking at pictures online generally your going to find the worst example of a diagnosis. When I get hives they can last anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. Honestly sometimes I will get one on my arm from coming in contact with a friends pet, and It will be gone when I look down again. They look like hives, but if your that worried you should go see a doctor.

    I get something like that from my cats when they lick/scent me and from short haired dogs. I would say its a minor allergic reaction like hives.

    I'd say bug bites.

    Hives are when histamine cause your blood vessels to break and leak fluid into pockets. Hives are not only caused by allergic reactions. However in allergic reactions, there are multiple hides. Also in my experiences, the hives are blotchy in shape. They're also more of a platform.

    Please define what an allergic reaction feels like.
