Hi, Good Day Doc! Doc I Have A Concern, I
Question: Hi, good day doc! Doc I have a concern, I have this hives for a 2 weeks now. I dont have any allergies.
Before i have this hives, my friends notice that my thyroid is slightly bigger, i talked to doctor about this already, she said there is a slight palpable bulged but nothing to be afraid of since i dont have any symptoms showing. 3 week after after i consult to the doctor about my thyroid i notice. A red tiny dots on my arms, it happens after i take vit C and eat a pork tocino and fried rice.
I already consult a dermatologist for this (my hives), there was no diagnosis the dermatologist just prescribed me cetirizine, a lipid free soap, clobetasol lotion, and TA cream, she also advice me to drink 10 glass of water/ daily.
I follow all her instructions. However last february 10, my hives are getting bigger and bigger. Its really hard because i need to wear tight clothing because of our school uniform, and i get hives everytime my skin gets pressured by pressing or anything tight.
Please, help me with this concern. And thank you.
