What are these hives and how do I get rid of them?

For a couple of months now (on and off) I’ve been getting these hives on my hands (if it’s bad enough sometimes on my feet and eyebags too but much less severe than on my hands). They itch, and if I accidentally scratch them the itching and warm sensation gets so much worse. I tried taking allergy meds to see if it helps and it does absolutely nothing. What can this be?

Please help my dad

He got a knee replacement and they had this large adhesive bandage over the wound made of latex or rubber of some kind. The surgery went well but after two weeks when they took the bandage off the wound was all raised and blistered looking. He developed hives all over his body and the wound started become raised and crusty looking and is steadily oozing clear/yellowish liquid. He’s seen the doctor many times did a steroid injection, they say it’s not infected and now they’re saying he needs to see a dermatologist because they’ve never seen anything like it. He had an appointment tomorrow with a dermatologist but I’d like some other insights and opinions. If anyone can shed some light on what might be happening I’d appreciate it. He still to this day has hives all over body. He says the wound itself does not itch or hurt but the hives itch. It’s been a month and a week since the surgery.

Bug bite gone black

I've had this bite for a few weeks because I keep picking at it (I know it's a very bad habbit) but after my shower today it turned from its usual red to a black/purple. Any clue if this change is serious?
The redness on my skin right now is from dehydration, I''m aware of it.

Deer fly bite

I got bit by a deer fly on Saturday morning. It was itchy and painful until Monday night. It's not itchy or painful anymore, but I am a little concerned about how it looks. It's hard in the center. Do I need to be worried?

Non-itchy rash thing right above my knee, anyone know what this is?

Noticed it 2 or 3 weeks ago after swimming in a friend’s salt water pool. Could have had it before then but never noticed it. It does not itch or hurt and to my knowledge has stayed about the same size.

Took 4 days of presidone, dont think it did anything. I then started putting
Hyrdocrotisone 2.0 . Stop putting that on and now taking 2 Allegras a day and had Clobetasol foam.. Any idea what it could br and which medicine route to continue??
