How many days does it take for baby's urticaria to heal?

The baby's constitution is born weaker because it is not fully developed. If you eat some foods that are more likely to cause allergies. For example, chocolate, tea leaves, shrimp, fish, crabs, etc. can easily cause urticaria, which is mainly manifested by the appearance of red spots and itching on the body, the appearance of some small blisters, and the baby will have a high fever and cry incessantly. Give your baby treatment in time, apply some non-irritating ointment, and also pay attention to dietary hygiene and eat more light foods.

1. Preschool and school-age children often like to eat snacks, and there are more types of snacks and regular meals, so the chance of food allergies increases. Foods such as fruits, fish, crabs, shrimps, peanuts, eggs, strawberries, apples, plums, citrus, various cold drinks, beverages, chocolate, etc. may become causes of allergies. Children aged 2-7 lack self-control and are often easily bitten by insects or come into contact with pollen, dust, mites and the fur of pets such as cats and dogs when they go outdoors, in the wild, in the bushes, or under street lights in the evening, all of which can easily cause allergies. Children in childhood and early childhood have low resistance and are prone to various infections. Therefore, diseases such as purulent tonsillitis, pharyngitis, enteritis, upper respiratory tract infections, etc. can become the triggering factors of urticaria all year round. Older children and adolescents are more likely to be allergic to drugs, especially penicillin, and develop urticaria.

2. Most urticaria attacks in children are acute urticaria, which are short-lived. Sometimes it can heal in a few hours or a week. Moreover, the onset of the disease is related to the immune mechanism. Some children will recover on their own after suffering from urticaria, but some will persist for a long time. For these children, they should actively go to the hospital for treatment and check the existing causes in detail.

3. If childhood urticaria continues to recur for more than six weeks, it becomes chronic urticaria. The cause of the disease is not necessarily related to food. Many other factors may cause chronic urticaria in children. Such as temperature changes, physical changes (such as scratching), dust, pollen, stockings, etc. causing stimulation to local skin, emotions causing vascular tension, etc.

4. There are many causes of chronic urticaria in children. Therefore, when doctors encounter such patients, they will ask about the medical history in great detail and ask patients to avoid possible triggering factors as much as possible. Since the disease may recur, it is recommended not to use injections of drugs as the side effects of long-term use are greater. Instead, oral medications are more appropriate to maintain the concentration of drugs in the blood. However, most children with chronic urticaria will experience drowsiness, general weakness, etc. after using the medication. Therefore, it is best for patients to cooperate with a trusted physician for a long time.
