Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.


I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.





You are suffering from Urticaria. Urticaria (Hives) are commonly due to drugs or food. Try to find the cause and avoid the causative agent. Apply calamine lotion and take anti histamine. If you do not get any improvement after a week, do consult your Dermatologist.





Hope I have answered your query.
