Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Whenever I feel itchy and scratch my skin, some lines come on the surface of the skin for the past one month. I have clicked a picture of it; please look at it and say suggestions.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. This condition is known as urticaria. In most cases, causes are unknown but can be due to some infection, like tooth infection, intestinal worms, drugs, vaccines, etc. The lesions come and also subside after some time. I suggest taking the following medicine daily for two weeks tablet Teczine-M (Levocetirizine 5 mg and Montelukast 10 mg) twice a day and review after two weeks (consult with a specialist doctor, talk with him or her and take medicines with their consent) Regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
