Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

For the past two years, my wife is having a skin allergy problem. It started soon after delivery of a baby. Sometimes, swelling on lips, mouth, and itching on the body was present. Three years back, took treatment for one year and the skin allergy resolved. But, now over a month, it has started again. She has got all her blood tests and other skin tests done and all turned out to be normal. Now, she is under homeopathy treatment for the past month, but the medicines are not effective. Please guide.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Does she suffer from hives while scratching? If there is any rash then please send the photographs of it.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, it always starts with itching. After taking homeopathy medicine, it stops for some time and started again. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

She is suffering from chronic urticaria. Use capsule Psorid (Cyclosporine) 100 mg, twice daily for a month. Tablet Pan 40 (Pantoprazole), one tablet half an hour before meals.

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