Guess what is “it” ? What actually causes urticaria?

The itchiness must be a very unforgettable feeling for those of you who have suffered from urticaria. Not to mention that the more you scratch, the more it will trigger rashes and bumps, and eventually they will soon spread all over your body. For those of you who have never suffered from urticaria, please do not think that you will forever live with it. Even though it comes and goes like a gust of wind, it is still difficult to treat chronic urticaria, hence, an early understanding of how to prevent further outbreak is necessary.

Urticaria, which is also known as rubella, is a skin allergic reaction, it can be divided into acute and chronic types. Acute urticaria is mostly caused by gastrointestinal bacteria, while the latter is caused by food and environmental allergens, such as dust mites, moulds, cat hair and dog hair.

When the mast cells in the skin are stimulated, they release histamine, which causes the blood vessels in the skin to dilate, resulting in rashes and bumps that make the affected area very itchy. In addition, chronic urticaria can also be caused by immune disorders, which need to be dealt with by specialists.

As mentioned above, urticaria is an allergic skin reaction. And due to the extreme itchiness it caused, it inevitably affects daily life and makes it difficult to concentrate on study and work. How to avoid the outbreak? It is very important to find out the allergens cause.
