What is Urticaria?

Urticaria appears as raised, itchy, red or skin-coloured welts that may move from one area to another. Some patients also get swelling of lips, eyelids or face, called angioedema.

Acute hives may settle quickly, but chronic urticaria can continue for weeks or months and may be frustrating when routine allergy tests are normal.

Homeopathy is considered supportive care for recurrent or chronic patterns. Breathing difficulty, throat swelling or severe facial swelling needs emergency care.

What You Need to Know

The Urticaria consultation records the diagnosis, reports, current medicines, symptom timeline, daily-life impact and goals for follow-up.

  • Hives
  • Itching
  • Swelling
  • Food triggers
  • Stress flares

Urticaria Review

Urticaria is reviewed by timing, trigger and swelling risk

Dr. Akshata asks when hives appear, how long they last, whether swelling occurs, what foods or medicines were taken, and what emotional or physical triggers preceded the flare.

What Causes Urticaria?

Hives happen when histamine and inflammatory chemicals are released in the skin. The trigger is not always obvious.

01Allergy or sensitivity

Food, medicines, additives or environmental exposure can trigger flares.

02Physical triggers

Heat, cold, sweat, sunlight, pressure or friction may provoke hives.

03Infection or inflammation

Viral, dental, throat or gut triggers can contribute.

04Stress

Emotional stress can worsen itching and recurrence in sensitive patients.

05Idiopathic pattern

Many chronic cases have no single clear trigger.
