You might like to take mast cell stabilizers which will work better for your condition. It is a good idea to go for a complete check up with your dermatologist to rule out systemic involvement.In any case, keep adequate medication handy in case you need the same as an emergency measure. Please avoid the triggers and the use of antihistamines is not one of them
