He Thought It Was Just an Allergy – The Diagnosis Surprised Him

🌿 When an Itch Means More: James’s Experience
What began as a slight, persistent itch quickly escalated into a serious nuisance for James. Without any changes to his diet, soaps, or skincare, small raised bumps started appearing on his arms and legs. The itching grew worse, especially at night, disrupting his sleep and daily activities.

At first, James relied on over-the-counter antihistamines, thinking it was a mild allergy. But as the symptoms persisted and intensified, he decided to consult a dermatologist.

Following a detailed examination and lab work, James was diagnosed with chronic urticaria—a condition characterized by recurrent hives without an obvious cause. This condition is often linked to stress, infections, or an immune system reaction.

Fortunately, under professional care, James began a treatment plan that significantly relieved his symptoms and improved his everyday life.
