Suggest Remedy For Recurring Hives

Hi
I have reoccurring hives on my head. Only two or three. They release pus, that turn into crusts. I always have one or two on my head. When one goes away, another appears.

I am sensitive to gluten, and suffer seasonal rhinitis for which I take antihistamines.

Thanks
Ida

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of recurring hives on your head which seems to be due to allergic reaction and due to compromised immunity of body. It seems you have increased susceptibility of getting infected. Need not to worry. You should visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment after thorough examination. You should get skin patch test and blood test done. Apply cold compresses on skin. Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid touching or pricking with any sharp object. Take proper course of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin along with anti inflammatory medication such as Sinarest.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
