Itching and Rashes on skin
Hi.. It's being now roughly 8 years I am suffering from something like chronic skin problem. I get cylindrical bumps in series across back, shoulders, arms and hips sometimes. I tried to do a routine analysis of food as well but no food allergy is found as even if I don't eat anything during the day this rash or bump would come up in the evening. I am taking Ebastine 20mg twice a week to avoid these rashes. It causes lot of irritation and when I rub it using my hands, it widens to bigger area

I think noone has ever councelled you. You are suffering from what Dermatologist call urticaria. Common causes are food allergy, infection or drugs taken for some condition. It presents with itching resulting in formation of red rashes which we call hives or wheals. Although in most cases cause remains unknown in spite of a thorough search. It can be symptomatically treated with medicines so that you do not get any new hives. The treatment should be prolonged until it resolves which usually takes 1 to 6 months. Please call me or contact me through online consult option for further details and treatment.
