Suggest Remedy For Recurring Bouts Of Severe Itching Leading In Bruising

I have severe itching that leaves me with bruises. I was told it was an allergic reaction to something but I don t know to what because I haven t come into contact with anything new. I was given a steroid shot along with an epinephrine shot to stop the reaction. I was also given prednisone and my last dose was on Tuesday. But the same symptoms have returned. What could this be?

Hi,
It seems that your problem might be due to some unidentified allergen causing these allergic rashes.
By trial and error go for searching allergen from your day to day things like soap, talc, shampoo, duo, clothes and food like cereals, fruits, vegetables.
You can go for allergy test to find out type of allergens.
Meanwhile take some antihistamine like Benadryl or Levo-cetrizine for few days.
Avoid more salt, sour things.
Ok and take care.
