Urticaria (Hives) and Its Homoeopathic Treatment Introduction
Do you suddenly get itchy red rashes, raised bumps, or swelling on your skin that appear and disappear within hours or days? This condition is called Urticaria (commonly known as hives).
Urticaria can be acute (short-term) or chronic (lasting for weeks or months). It may cause intense itching, burning, and discomfort, often affecting sleep and quality of life. In some cases, swelling of lips, eyelids, or throat (angioedema) may occur, which requires immediate attention.
At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma provides safe and effective homoeopathic treatment that not only relieves itching and rashes but also reduces the tendency for recurrences by correcting the root cause.
Causes & Triggers of Urticaria
Medical Causes
- Allergic reaction to foods, medicines, or insect bites
- Autoimmune disorders
- Infections (viral, bacterial, parasitic)
- Thyroid or liver dysfunction
- Side effects of certain medications
Lifestyle & Environmental Triggers
- Stress and emotional strain
- Sudden weather changes (heat, cold, humidity)
- Contact with dust, pollen, pet dander, or chemicals
- Tight clothing causing skin irritation
- Consumption of alcohol, seafood, eggs, nuts, or packaged food
Homoeopathic Approach to Urticaria
Conventional treatment usually involves antihistamines or steroids, which provide only temporary relief. Homoeopathy works differently:
- Identifies and treats the root cause—allergy, stress, or immune imbalance.
- Reduces frequency, intensity, and duration of rashes naturally.
- Boosts immunity and restores skin’s natural balance.
- Provides safe, side-effect-free remedies suitable for all ages.
At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma prescribes personalized medicines after a detailed case study, ensuring long-term relief and improved skin health.
