    Treatment

    The treatment of urticaria lies in identifying and ultimately eliminating the triggering factor.

    Dr Divya Agrawal helps in relieving your condition by counsel you regarding your disease as well as helps in identifying the triggering factor by asking you to undergo a battery of investigations.

    In 50% of the cases, the cause remains unknown. But don’t worry if you have such an issue as such cases can be easily controlled with safe medications that can be taken for a long period of time.
