Suggest Treatment For Chronic Urticaria

Hi, I am suffering from rashes on my skin from the past 3 years.. I have undergone an allergy test as prescribed by a dermatologist.. After that test,they told that it is chronic urticaria and then they gave some injections which I m using from the past 2 years but still I m getting the rashes frequently.... I have stopped eating non veg and many other dishes too.. Really frustrated of these rashes and tried many other alternatives too but no luck.. Could someone please help me to get rid of these rashes ?

My Dear

Welcome to Healthcaremagic!
I have studied your symptoms and accompanying details.

From your details, you appear to having chronic urticaria.It is a disease in which despite investigations, a cause is not always discovered.
You have not provided the name of drug that is being used by you as injections. If it a steroid, then it might do more harm than good i the long run. However, if it is anti allergic medication, then occasional use is indicated.
However, I am concerned that you are not getting satisfactory relief.
In your situation, two kind of suggestions can be offered to such patients:
1 Have a combination of H1 and H2 antagonist concurrently.
2 Take Mast Cell stabilizers like Montelekast

Apart from the above, it is important to avoid allergens that were found to be harmful for you in the Patch Test.

With these measures, you have the best chances of relief.
Best wishes from Healthcaremagic.
