Urticaria in toddler
My son 3 year old started having itchy bumps last week which would last for few hours, his pediatrician prescribed Hicope syrup to treat allergy for 3days. During these 3 days when I was giving him syrup he dint get any allergy, but once the prescribed doses were over, he started getting allergy again and we are asked to continue with same syrup plus calapure lotion. How long urticaria lasts in toddler? Im unable to find the trigger for this. Is continuing the medication for long time cause no harm?

There are few investigations which can be done to find out the cause of urticaria. Urticaria can only be controlled if the causative agent is removed. You can always consult a dermatologist. Thanks

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.

Please do not worry. Effective treatment options are available; however, management depends on the severity and extent of the condition. A detailed medical history is essential for appropriate evaluation and treatment planning.
Kindly schedule an online consultation with a dermatologist for a comprehensive assessment, prescription, and further guidance.”
