"Hi!
Welcome to Healthcaremagic. com.

I have read your query in detail and do understand your concern.

" You seem to be suffering from urticaria.
If you find any causative factors- any dietary substance, dust, exertion, etc, try to avoid it.
Keep the temperature of water neither too cold nor very hot.
Apply calamine lotion over affected areas.

Usually long term-low dose treatment is required required in form of antihistamines

Hope this helps!

Good luck!"
