For skin treatment in Model Town, HomeoSure offers personalised homeopathy with Dr. Chhavi Bansal at our clinic in nearby Pitampura. Hives, or urticaria, are itchy welts that appear and fade, sometimes daily. Treatment works on the overreactive immune pattern behind repeated hives, not just calming each episode. Book a consultation with Dr. Chhavi Bansal today.
What Hives Are
Hives appear when the skin releases histamine, causing raised, itchy, often pale-centred welts. Each welt usually fades within a day, but new ones can keep appearing.
When hives keep returning for more than six weeks, doctors call it chronic urticaria. In many chronic cases no single trigger is ever found, which is frustrating but common.
Common Triggers
- Certain foods, like shellfish, nuts or food additives
- Infections, including a simple cold
- Painkillers such as aspirin and ibuprofen
- Heat, sweating, pressure from tight clothes, or cold
- Stress
How We Treat Repeated Hives
Dr. Chhavi asks when the hives appear, what they look like, what seems to set them off, and about allergies, digestion and stress. The remedy is chosen for your pattern.
If you take antihistamines, continue them as advised and reduce only as the hives settle. More on our allergy and skin care.
- Keep a simple note of what you ate and did before each episode
- Wear loose cotton clothes
- Cool compresses ease the itch
- Avoid painkillers that seem to trigger it, after checking with your doctor
Hives and Swelling
Sometimes hives come with deeper swelling of the lips, eyelids or hands, called angioedema. On its own it isn't usually dangerous, but swelling of the tongue or throat is a different matter and needs emergency care.
