Patient's question:
The child's buttock is itchy here, and it will go down in a while. If we don't let him scratch and concentrate his attention, he might forget. Is this an allergy or something else? I'm very anxious. This area has been itchy for three days, only at night.Doctor's answer:
Based on your symptom description, this is considered to be urticaria, characterized by itching, wheals appearing after scratching, fading within a few hours, recurring intermittently, and occurring in unpredictable locations without leaving any marks after fading. It is recommended to apply calamine lotion externally and take cetirizine drops orally once a day at night. Monitor the effects carefully for a week. If it doesn't improve, you should go to the hospital to investigate the cause and receive combined treatment targeting the cause and symptoms.
