How To Cure The Symptoms Of Hives?
Hey, all of the symptoms of hives I seem to tick. I have a large amount of hives on my arms, above my knees and neck. It gets so itchy to a point, were I slap my skin so I won t scratch it. But I always end up doing it. When ever I go beach , I come back home and after a few hours it appears. But it has gotten worser and itch over the past 1 week. One part of the swelling and itchyness will die but then a new batch will appear! Is something I eat? I do get this every now and then. I use to get the. On my hands, but they would disappear . It has gotten worser eveytime I get them . Neeeed help please . Thanks doc :)

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The hives are often related to an allergic reaction.
The reaction can be due to a food that you are eating,detergent that you are using to clean the clothes or other factors .
I suggest to use an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg to prevent the hives.
I also suggest to use Betametasone cream for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
