I come across many pateints with Urticaria.The pateints question is what is it ,why is it? Of course I treat them With steroid inj. if necessary anti histamincs like avil and local soothing lotions or oinments. these pateints require a lot of counseling because they go to different doctors during every attack.The best approach I have found is the method of elimination.Ask them to recollect what all they did that day.> what food they eat what clothes they wore where all they went etc etc and beleive me the pateint himself will get his daignosis! the treatment is of course is to avoid the allergan again!
I explain to them this way "if the gas is on and u put your finger u are going to get burns! similarly if expose to the allergen u are going to get allergy! am I right in my approach? please give ur veiws DR. vasanthi Udeshi
