Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

Skin allergies can be triggered by various factors, including:

1. Food.

2. Environmental allergens.

3. Medications.

4. Certain fabrics.

While antihistamines or topical anti-itch creams may provide short-term relief for the itchiness, it is crucial to identify the underlying cause of the allergy for effective treatment.

The light red color in his urine could indicate the presence of blood, which might be caused by:

1. Infections (such as a urinary tract infection).

2. Kidney issues.

3. Bladder problems.

4. Certain medications that irritate the urinary tract.

5. Dehydration.

6. Specific foods that can alter urine color.

This should not be ignored.

It is essential for him to undergo a physical examination by a doctor in a hospital. I recommend the following tests:

1. Blood tests.

2. Urine tests (urinalysis).

3. Ultrasound to assess the kidneys and bladder.

Ensure your father stays well-hydrated and avoids known allergens or irritants that may worsen his condition. Applying soothing lotions might help, but avoid home remedies that could exacerbate the issue without understanding the root cause.

Consulting a dermatologist or urologist is advisable.

I wish him a speedy recovery. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions! A physical examination by a doctor is essential.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.
