Breaking Out Into Hives. Does It Take Some Time To Flush All Wheat Out Of The Body?
HI..I m 35 I have broken out into Hives for 4 wks now...never have done this before. Haven t changed anything soaps, creams nothing. Decided to go GLuten Free this is only day 5, i feel great stomach wise, and happier:) although I m still breaking out into hives...My question is does it take a while to flush all wheat out of your system?
Hi,
There is a long list of causes of hives like ingestion of food items, inhalation of chemicals, infections, worm infestation, autoantibody formation etc.
Being gluten free will work only if it is the cause. Most of the times we can not reach at the cause.
For the time being you start using oral antihistaminics like cetirizine/levocetirizine regularly and visit a dermatologist for further management.
