Urticaria emphasizes restricting diet, but it should be targeted and reasonably restricted. For acute urticaria, if it is not caused by infection or drugs, we should first avoid irritating and allergic foods, such as spicy food, seafood, milk, eggs, etc. We must carefully review whether there are any foods and drinks that we don't usually eat often, including vegetables and fruits. In particular, some condiments and preservatives are not ignored, because these substances are not easy to attract people's attention, and in fact, it is not uncommon for these substances to be allergic. Urticaria has a great influence on us, seriously affecting our daily life and physical and mental health. Therefore, we must treat urticaria correctly in our daily life and avoid all possible causes as much as possible. Secondly, we should also pay attention to the corresponding protection in daily life, and treat it positively and correctly when urticaria occurs. So what should we pay attention to in acute urticaria's diet? Experts say that urticaria is very harmful, and patients' friends should find out what they can eat and what they can't eat in their daily lives. This is of great help to the condition of urticaria. In addition, the diet of urticaria should pay attention to the following points:
1. Perilla frutescens can be used if it is caused by fish and shrimp: if urticaria occurs because of eating fish, shrimp and crabs, you can eat a lot of fresh perilla leaves, or you can drink the decoction of perilla leaves. The method is to decoct 5 grams of dried perilla leaves with 2 grams of water.
2. Avoid eating spicy fishy hair: try to avoid fish, shrimp, crabs and irritating food when no possible inducement is found. Such as shrimp and crab, oysters, sea clams, soft-shelled turtles, hairtail, eel, pig's head meat, cock, beef and mutton, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, etc., because these foods are prone to weathering heat, which can promote the occurrence of this disease. Pepper, pepper, cinnamon, onion, curry, fennel, tobacco and alcohol, etc. Because these foods can help heat and activate blood, induce the occurrence of this disease; Sometimes it can also become an allergen directly, resulting in allergic reaction.
3. Things that should be fasted when the rash is serious: food that makes the blood dirty will make urticaria worse. Like stale shrimp, crab, cockroach fish, octopus and shellfish, or bamboo shoots, glutinous rice, chocolate, coffee, spices, sugar, etc., they should all be forbidden to eat when they break out, and people who are prone to urticaria should always pay attention to eating these foods. In addition, foods that cause urticaria should be fasted.
4. Eat a light diet, have more rest, don't be tired, and exercise moderately. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins or take vitamins C and B, or B6 in group B.. Eat more alkaline foods, such as grapes, green tea, kelp, tomatoes, sesame seeds, cucumbers, carrots, bananas, apples, oranges, radishes, mung beans, sweet kernels, etc.

Often, after eating seafood and medicines, the skin suddenly becomes red, swollen and itchy, and rashes of all shapes and sizes appear. At first, they are isolated or scattered, gradually expanding and merging into pieces. Most of these rashes will automatically subside within 24 hours, but new rashes occur one after another. Urticaria appears quietly and disappears quietly, and it is the characteristic of this disease to come and go like the wind.
Severe illness is characterized by symptoms such as palpitation, irritability, nausea, vomiting, and even decreased blood pressure, and some patients may be involved in the stomach, causing abdominal pain and diarrhea. If the larynx is involved, it is difficult to breathe and even suffocate.
Some patients are not so lucky. Annoying rashes appear every day. If it lasts for more than two months, we call it "chronic urticaria", and it may last for several months or even years.
