Patient's question:
Hello everyone, I would like to ask that my child often gets hives, appearing every 2-3 days, especially at night. I don't know what they are allergic to, and medication hasn't been effective. 2. to 3 days, they appear all over the body like hives and blisters. It has been happening for a year. Previous treatment and effectiveness: After taking many medications, it improved, but it flares up again after stopping the medication. It is not hereditary. What kind of help do you need: What is going on with this? How can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is likely urticaria, caused by allergies. It is recommended to take oral antihistamines such as chlorpheniramine and apply topical corticosteroid creams (corticosteroids should not be used for a long time). In daily life, avoid external irritants and local irritation as much as possible. Do not scratch or rub vigorously, and avoid hot water or soapy washing. Do not drink alcohol, strong tea, or coffee. Avoid sour, spicy dishes, or other irritating foods. During relapse, avoid foods that are prone to cause allergies, such as yellow croaker, shrimp, seafood, etc.
