Hives???

I seem to be getting over some sort of viral illness- now that the ear pain, congestion, and vertigo have mostly cleared up, I broke out in an awful case of hives!!

I've been taking calcera carbonica because I beleive that the problems were originating from my incoming wisdom tooth (which isn't bothering me nearly as much anymore.)

Are the hives part of a "healing crisis" or are they a sign of a new and completely different problem? This is the first time I've ever had hives.

The medical doctor I saw today prescribed an antihistamine and told me to use calamine lotion on the hives. I know the antihistamine supresses symptoms and may delay long-term healing. What about the calamine lotion?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
the hives are probably related and part of the healing. calamine lotion may not be ideal. other soothing options which do not interfere with the healing are as follows - make sure you try all on a small area first to see if it helps, only use on larger area if you are sure it does not make hives worse:
-nettle tea (bath with - i.e. put a nettle tea bag in bathwater or in bowl and bath skin with)
- aloe vera (preferably fresh from plant so that you avoid the aggravating preservatives).
- bach flower rescue cream
- cabbage leaves can soothe inflammation but not sure if this is ok on hives

homeopathic remedies urtica urens (nettle) or rumex (dock leaf) may help.
also - if you have been taking calc carb and the hives are very red, hot or throbbing then belladonna will help (acute of calc carb).

OK, I'm currently home with two sick children and I can't get to any stores today.

I don't have bach rescue cream but I do have a number of bach remedies, including rescue remedy and crab apple. Would taking these orally help? Any way I can make my own topical ointment/cream from the remedies?

taking bach flower crab apple may help. you can make your own cream with the rescue remedy as long as the cream you put the drops of the remedy into is something that will not irritate your skin - try it on a small patch first to make sure it is ok!
do you have cucumber in the house - if you are not allergic or sensitive to cucumber this can be very cooling in slices on the skin.

Are the hives from allopathic treatments?

Please tell us about your children. Please let homeopathy be your medicine. You and your family will never get well, really well, on regular allopathic suppression.

Tell us more about yourself. What happened to be treated, how did it progress?

Homeopathy uses symptoms to choose a remedy. Sometimes there is an increase of symptoms, but this is a good sign of the suppression coming out and healing from within the body.

Blessings, Sabra

Ok, my children are back in school today, and I didn't use any allopathic medicines on them. I took them to the chiropractor yesterday.

Hannah (8) mostly needed some extra rest yesterday, which she got. Jack (3) is still coughing a little bit but the fever is gone, his appetite has returned, and he's in good spirits.

I've had chronic health problems for years- fatigue depression, fibromyalgia, off and on vertigo related to nasal congestion/fluid in the eustacian tube. In the past few weeks, I've been congested, dizzy, had ear and wisdom tooth pain, and most recently the hives.

We just discovered mold in my bedroom which may be the cause of my health problems. I've been sleeping in the living room, and we're going to have the mold professionally removed ASAP. I'm currently living in a basement apartment but we're planning to move this summer, and I have a LOT of work to do before then, helping to get this house ready to sell.

I have not used the calamine lotion in several days, but I am still taking claratin and sudafed. I know that both of these suppress symptoms and are not good for long-term healing, but without the sudafed I get very dizzy and cannot take care of my children.

I've been taking bach crab apple, rescue remedy, and walnut since yesterday.

HELLO! FOLKS FINALLY A SOLUTION FOR A ALLERGY THAT WILL BE WITH YOU FOR MORE THAN A DECADE..'NOW U CAN CURE IT YOUR SELF' HERE'S HOW...

After struggling for a cure for this particular and very peculiar skin allergy I consulted the best of the doctors for a remedy but the only answer I would get is,
we need to test your blood, urine, blah, blah, blah.

Then I consulted another skin specialist who said 'Lab test will cost you a lot of money let me prescribe you some medicine and lets see how good your situation will be;
cause we cannot cure this allergy in a day or two but if these medicines work then you will need to continue taking these pill for more than a couple of years'
which i did follow the advice for my benefit.

But the pills were of heavy dose and i would get a massive head ache for at least 6 hours from morning to noon these were the know side effects forget about the unknown ones but I still continued but no respite from the pills either, this was affecting my work too then one fine day I started browsing the internet for answers and I was shocked to see the fact especially help section on dermographism in this web site that there are a lot of people suffering from this chronic itch from 20 long years; for example and still looking forward to take pill.

I don’t know when it will end for me that’s what I was thinking back of my mind until I saw a particular message that says
'causes for dermographism'

There was a list of food items and medicines that can cause all this starting from antibiotic medicine for ear infection and pain killer like aspirin etc and foods like sugar, wheat, bread, alcohol, pickle, honey, fruits etc..

This shows that either your allergy is caused due to sugary food or sweets, sweets fruits, honey, chocolates; avoid them. Bread, alcohol, anything that is fermented cause it has yeast which is a good bacteria for humans but the antibodies in your body are either not resistant to them or they are dead.

All milk products these also has lot of good bacteria that is good if consumed but your body is rejecting them and thus all the itch and allergy so try to avoid all these foods for a couple of days and eat anything apart from them like cooked rice but not fermented ones and avoid eating sugar right from morning in your coffee, tea, milk etc , then your breakfast could ideally be corn flakes and lunch could contain barley, corn, leafy vegetables etc. This is what I did finally I tried eating the one which i should not like wheat, bread, milk, one by one on a daily basic until I came till sugar yes this was the culprit for me.

on a sunny afternoon after traveling for about 1 1/2 hour ride to remote place i was offered coke and I could not resist and within minutes I got the disgusting itch back on my body and I concluded the study as sugar is the main reason for the problem. Today I eat every thing except my medicines and sugar.

yes you need to give up all these at least for some time else you will end up looking like a pink baboon which i was and u might be after itching all over your body. Take this advise as a second had experience if you are also allergic to sugar than don’t consume any for minimum 6 months and try again and the same for any other foods also and try not to take any medicine prescribed for dermographism by doing this you will be improving your natural immune system and back to normal.

I know it is very easy to advise someone and difficult to follow but this procedure will not only help you to be independent away from allopathic medicine which is sometime too much is too bad and can lead to unknown side effects which any will cause another two or three side effects sounds like a chain reaction but this is the hard fact of today’s modern world and there's much to be done to educate people.

If you look back to history and see how our ancestors were able to cope up with all these kind of diseases the answer is natural medicine which is 100% accurate and 100% no side effects but in fact they act as a good immune builder not as a destroyer which is what we have excepted in our modern day life which a busy and end up paying our hard earned money into the doctors pocket...

SO I wish you all the best and I am open for feed backs and you can mail me at ravisgoyal'at'gmail
