Mild cases of hives usually do not need a special treatment. Doctors may
prescribe over-the-counter antihistamines. The use of topic creams may help to
reduce itchiness.
More severe cases may require a treatment with corticosteroids, such as
prednisolone.
Treatment of mild and severe cases involves the identification of the possible
triggers and avoiding them. A diet with low intakes of vasoactive amines (fish,
chocolate, pineapple, and tomatoes) and salicylates (orange, tea, spices) can
also be recommended. |
