Allergy, Itching In Elbows, Forehead, Neck And Head, Have Hives, Severe Papules. Treatment?

I had a sort of allergy and itching on the different parts of body like elbows, forehead, neck and head. I also got some hives on elbow and ankles. In the head it was severe with several papules and due to itching I would damage the skin to bleed. I consulted a physician and he advised me to take Wysolone in the following way. 20mg BD for 5 days...then 10mr BD for 5 days.... 5mg BD for 5 days.... 5mg OD...
when I started the treatment within two days the problems seemed to get over ..... but now I am taking 5mg dose and the itching has again started and papules are again appearing.

tell what to do and what this disease is. ThanQ

hi and welcome to healthcare magic...
first thing is to identify the thing from whitch you are allergic...and then try to avoid exposure to it...
second thing is take any of non sedating anti allergic rather then steriod and take a full course of it....
steriods are the last weapon....
wish you a very good health...
