Suggest Remedy For Hives During Gilbert's Syndrome
Hi, I was diagnosed with Gilbert's syndrome 15 years ago (I'm 25 now). Over the last 4 years this disease showed almost no signs. The only problem that bothers me are hives. 2 years ago they appeared on my back and shoulders all of a sudden. Since then they appear every 4-6 months on my shoulders, neck, face and back. My billirubin level is fine (I've been taking Milk Thistle Extract for months), I feel great. When they appear, they stay for 4-5 weeks. They are transparent with liquid content inside and are easily removed. What can I do about hives?
Thanks.
Thanks.

hi
There is no need treatment for Gilbert's syndrome.
it is a benign condition that doesn't cause damage to your liver.
with regards to hives you should disccus it with a dermatologist.
