Hello. Thanks for asking Healthcare Magic. Urticaria is frequently caused by allergic reactions. I would suggest to start with anti allergic tablets such as fexofenadine 60 mg twice a day for 5 days. Avil injection is usually not advisable in urticaria. It will take some time for you to fully recover from this. If you have any other queries/question please feel free to ask. Thanks and wish you a healthy life.
