Nettle diagnosis is commonly known as "rubella fast" and "wind rash". People often think that it is a reaction on the skin after being exposed to a certain kind of wind. In fact, the cause of urticaria is still unknown. It may be related to diet, drugs, insect bites, pollen, intestinal parasites, etc. When urticaria occurs, the skin will have erythema and edema.

Urticaria can occur in any part of the skin, spread to the whole body within ten minutes, and can also disappear within 1-2 hours. As the saying goes, "come and go quickly." The rash is so itchy that I often scratch it. After scratching, scratch marks appear, protruding from the surface of the skin. Sometimes I send it several times a day; sometimes I send it once every few days. For children with frequent urticaria attacks, it is best for parents to record the children's daily life (such as what foods they have eaten, where they have been, what smells they have smelled, etc.), hoping to find allergens and avoid contact with allergens in the future to reduce Occurrence of urticaria.

Sometimes, in addition to urticaria on the skin, there are also bouts of severe abdominal pain. This phenomenon shows that the gastrointestinal mucosa is also affected by allergens, causing edema and congestion. The most serious thing is that the throat mucosa may also suffer from edema due to allergies, causing laryngeal obstruction, affecting breathing, especially making it difficult to inhale. At this time, tracheotomy is required for rescue. Although this situation is rare, please be vigilant. Some parents believe that urticaria is caused by eating seafood, and therefore prohibit their children from eating such foods. In fact, this approach is not correct. There are many allergens, and you can only avoid certain foods if you have real "evidence"!
