Urticaria, commonly known as hives, is a common skin disease. Urticaria can be divided into acute and chronic types. Acute urticaria usually starts with itching of the skin all over the body, followed by the appearance of wheals of varying sizes that are bright red or pale. This type of wheal often occurs suddenly, disappears within a few minutes to a few hours or a dozen hours, leaves no trace, and can recur several times a day. Some patients experience abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting; some patients also have fevers of varying degrees; in severe cases, they may experience shortness of breath, wheezing, difficulty breathing, and even shock symptoms such as pale complexion and low blood pressure. Acute urticaria will stop after a few days to 1-2 weeks.

Chronic urticaria generally does not cause fever, nausea, vomiting, or asthma, but only skin wheals and itching, and the course of the disease can last for several months or even years. The causes of urticaria are many and complex. There are fish, shrimp, crabs, animal feathers, pollen, mushrooms, nettles, medicines, sunlight, bacteria, parasites, etc. In daily life, people come into contact with too many objects and eat too many foods, making it difficult to identify the cause of the disease, which causes some people to suffer from measles repeatedly.
