Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a skin allergy that in part is very itchy. I have had several tests that have not found problem. My brother in law said he similar problem and his allergist suggested Sodium Bicarbinate (sp) 650mg. It cleared up his allergic skin condition. Could this work for me
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think you are suffering from skin allergy which is hereditary. Usually allergy is due to exposure to specific type of allergens which maybe dust,pollen,fish,milk,nuts etc. So it's important to know the type of allergen triggering Ur problem and try to avoid it. If you still get the allergy try taking anti-histamine medication like Cetrizine which will give temporary relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
