The eruption may fade in a few minutes or an hour in one place, but may appear in another.

Urticaria diet

Urticaria : Home Remedies suggested by users

All-fruit diet

As urticaria usually has its origin in the gastro-intestinal tract, the best way to commence the treatment is to adopt an all-fruit diet for about five days. In this regimen, the patient should take three meals a day of fresh juicy fruits such as oranges, apples, pineapples, grapes, pears, peaches, and papayas. The patient should drink a copious amount of hot water.

Well balanced food intake

After the all-fruit diet, the patient may embark upon a well balanced diet consisting of seeds, nuts, grains, vegetables, and fruits. The emphasis should be on fresh fruits and raw vegetable salads

Food to avoid during Urticaria

The patient should avoid tea, coffee, alcohol, all flesh foods, refined foods, and all foods which are difficult to digest

Water and Lemon intake

He should drink at least eight glasses of water daily between meals. A glass of water containing the juice of half a lemon may be taken one hour before each meal and also between meals. The patient should spend two or three days on an all-fruit diet, at regular intervals. This will further cleanse the system of toxic matters and help recovery.



Other Urticaria treatment

Warm-water enema

A warm-water enema should be used daily during the initial all-fruit diet to cleanse the bowels, and later, if necessary

Exposure to fresh air and sunlight

Fresh air and sunlight are also essential for the treatment and the patient should frequently expose his body to the sun

Avoid exposure to cold

The patient should avoid exposure to cold and cold water

Hot Epsom Salts bath

One of the most effective remedies for treating urticaria is a hot Epsom salts bath to be taken three times a week. This bath is prepared by dissolving one kilogram of commercial Epsom salts in an ordinary bath of hot water. The patient should remain immersed in the bath from ten to twenty minutes. He should cool off gradually and care should be taken not to catch a chill afterwards. No soap should be used with the Epsom salts bath, as this interferes with its beneficial effects
