Suggest Treatment For Persistent Hives On Ankles And Legs
My husband gets hives at unpredictable times. He works outside (he s a 71 year old builder.) He get breaks out with hives sometimes when he works with cement, and sometimes the dust will cause the hives to start itching. He applies anti-itch cream, and usually they calm down and disappear. But sometimes they wake him up in the night. They are usually on his ankles and legs.
take levocetrizine/allegra/avil to treat hives. apply antiallergic lotions like calapure/anthical. try to stay away from cement and other allergens as far as possible. wear protective clothing and boots while working with cement. take care
