Welcome to Emerald Avenue Medical Clinic – Expert Care for Urticaria and Allergic Rashes in JBR
What is Urticaria (Hives)?
Urticaria, commonly known as hives, is a skin condition characterized by raised, itchy welts that can vary in size. These welts may appear anywhere on the body and can be caused by a range of factors, including allergies, stress, infections, or certain medications. Urticaria can appear suddenly and may persist for hours or days, causing discomfort and distress.
Common Causes of Allergic Rashes and Urticaria
- Food allergies: Certain foods like nuts, shellfish, or dairy can trigger allergic reactions, including urticaria.
- Environmental allergens: Pollen, dust mites, mold, and pet dander can cause allergic reactions that lead to rashes and hives.
- Insect bites: Bee stings, mosquito bites, and other insect stings can cause localized allergic reactions, resulting in swelling and itching.
- Medications: Some medications, including antibiotics and pain relievers, may cause allergic skin reactions.
- Heat or cold: Extreme temperatures can sometimes trigger urticaria in sensitive individuals.
- Stress: Emotional stress and anxiety can trigger or worsen hives.
Diagnostic Services for Urticaria and Allergic Rashes
Accurate diagnosis is key to determining the cause of your urticaria or allergic rash and finding the right treatment. At Emerald Avenue Medical Clinic, we offer the following diagnostic services:
