Csu related problem
I need help evaluating my condition. I have had recurrent itchy hives for more than 6 weeks, so I'm concerned about chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) or cholinergic urticaria. My hives are very small (pinhead-sized), usually start on my hands and chest, and are triggered by heat, sweating, exercise, and sometimes emotional stress. During attacks I also develop difficulty breathing, feel extremely weak, have heavy eyes, and lose energy after the hives appear. Sometimes I feel itchy all over my body even while sitting. My Total IgE is high, but my routine blood tests (CBC, ESR, CRP, liver function, kidney function, thyroid function, vitamin D, etc.) were largely normal. Anti-TPO was around 15 previously. Fexofenadine (Verixo 180 mg) provides some relief.

Hello,
Thank you for your query.
• Based on the information provided, it is difficult to suggest the most appropriate treatment without a proper assessment, as several skin conditions can appear similar.
• Kindly share clear photographs of the affected area in good lighting along with details such as duration of the problem, symptoms, and any treatments used previously.
• I would advise against starting any OTC creams or self-medication, as some products may worsen the condition or delay proper treatment.
• An accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effective and long-lasting results.
You may book a consultation for a detailed evaluation and a personalized treatment plan. I would be happy to guide you further.
