What Are the Best Treatments for Urticaria?

[drelizabethblackburn]

Urticaria, or hives, is best treated by identifying and avoiding triggers, taking antihistamines like cetirizine or loratadine, and using corticosteroids for severe cases. Cool compresses and anti-itch creams can provide relief. If hives result from a bacterial infection, a doctor may prescribe Cephalexin capsules, an antibiotic effective against bacterial skin infections. In chronic or severe cases, immunosuppressants like omalizumab may be recommended. Keeping a food and activity diary can help pinpoint triggers. If symptoms persist or worsen, seeking medical advice is essential to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
