Dental Implant and Hives on Skin

Al, I hope you're checking your post from June. I would like to hear more about what you're facing/experiencing on this. I have had outbreaks since completion of an implant several months ago. It's completely random. I get welts on part of my lip or cheek and it moves around in different spots. Co-workers think I've been bitten or stung by an insect when it occurs. This happens every two weeks or so and there is no set pattern related to diet or the usual food triggers such as nuts, etc.

I've been generally healthy. As a kid I reacted to too many marshmallows with a case of hives but it never occurred again until 40 years later. The only thing I think of is the major dental work that I've had recently that could be related and found your post. Thanks!
