Hi.
As per your case history your brother is having urticaria and angioedema, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid fast food and food with artificial colors.
2. Apply a soothing lotion like calamine lotion on affected region.
3. Don't take any medication without consulting a doctor.
4. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 2 months.

If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.

Thanks.
