Have you ever gotten some redness on your skin and you are not sure exactly what you have? Hives are a type of rash that you may have. This will be characterized by having some bumps on the skin that may be the same color of your skin or it may also be a bit red.

If you would press these bumps, you will see that they would turn white. A rash may come in different forms. They may come in the form of small bumps on the skin that may be clustered together.

One thing that you will notice is that hives do not usually appear scaly but there are a lot of rashes that usually appear scaly depending on the type of rash that you are suffering from.
