You are probably suffering from what Dermatologist call urticaria. Common causes are food allergy, infection or drugs taken for some condition. It presents with itching resulting in formation of red rashes which we call hives or wheals. Although in most cases cause remains unknown in spite of a thorough search. It can be symptomatically treated with medicines so that you do not get any new hives. The treatment should be prolonged until it resolves which usually takes 1 to 6 months. Please call me or contact me through online consult option for further details and treatment.

Greetings .Hives (chronic urticaria) is a condition where an itchy rash persists on and off for six weeks or more. 'Chronic' means persisting for a long time or constantly coming back.In many cases the cause may be an autoimmune problem.Stress, infections,some food items or medicines may be a trigger in some cases.but without seeing can't say much.There is no point in giving non specific treatment without finding the exact cause.Kindly visit your doctor or you may can consult me via Clinic. Regards Dr Shuhaib MP(Pune)
