Hi this clearly suggests that you are suffering from allergy.
Since red rashes, itching and swelling is more in hands I advice you to wear full sleeve cotton dress and glouses to avoid any contact with allergen, daily wash your dress with hot water and sun dry them. Also the area you are staying should be dust free.
With these you can continue montelukast 10 alone without LC every day and levocetrizine only when required(For symptoms). You can apply topical mometasone cream, this will help you in preventing the rashes to occur.
Thhe permanent cure is to avoid allergen and if not possible get done skin prick test to find the allergen and then sensitization therapy/immunotherapy can be given.
Hope this is more informative and helps you in management.
Regards
