Specific Indication:
Most cases of urticaria are acute, lasting from a few hours to less than six weeks. Whereas, the chronic cases lasts more than six weeks. First the skin itches, then it errupts into red welts. The itching may be severe, keeping people away from working or sleeping. Worse by scratching. Urticaria can be classified into two categories, allergic urticaria and non-allergic urticaria.
General Indication:
Allergic urticaria is the least common form, although it is somewhat more common in children than in adults. It is caused by the immune systems overreaction to foods, drugs, infection, insect stings, blood transfusions or other substances. Foods such as eggs, nuts and shellfish, and drugs such as penicillin and sulfa are common causes of allergic or immunologic urticaria. Recent studies also suggest that some cases of chronic urticaria are caused by autoimmune mechanisms, when the patient develops immune reactions to components of his or her skin.
Non-allergic urticaria are those types of urticaria where a clear-cut allergic basis cannot be proven. These take many forms like, dermographism is urticaria that develops when the skin is stroked with a firm object. Cold-induced urticaria appears after a person is exposed to low temperatures for example, after a plunge into a swimming pool or when an ice cube is placed against the skin.
Cholinergic urticaria, which is associated with exercise, hot showers and/or anxiety, is a form of hives that is related to release of certain chemicals from parts of the nervous system that controls such body functions as blood pressure and heart rate. Pressure urticaria develops from the constant pressure of constricting clothing such as sock bands, bra straps, belts or other tight clothing. Solar urticaria arises on parts of the body exposed to the sun; this may occur within a few minutes after exposure.
