Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and would like to make suggestions as follows:

1. I usually treat such patients with cetirizine or levocetirizine when they have symptoms as well as half-an-hour before when symptoms are expected.

2. I would also suggest you to avoid exercises causing excessive sweating or which in general increase your body warmth, they can cause these types of hives.

3. I would also suggest you to avoid hot/spicy foods and beverages, which may be helpful.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish you the best of the health.

Thank you & Regards.
