Do you ever experience itching in situations like these? That might actually be hives.Hives are a skin problem characterized by itching and swelling, but the cause is often unclear.As many as half of those who have hives are unaware that they have them. (*1)As a result, as many as 40% of people don't know how to deal with the symptoms, making it a deeply distressing condition. (*2) *1・2 [Survey method] The survey targeted people who had developed hives within the past year after being shown images of hives symptoms. (n=1.172, surveyed by Rohto)
Stress and fatigue
allergy
Physical stimuli (rubbing, cold, heat, etc.)
sweating
Suddenly, a slightly raised, circular (oval) or map-shaped swelling appears, accompanied by redness and intense itching.
Scratching temporarily relieves the itching, but scratching can spread the swelling and itchiness of hives, further worsening the symptoms.
The mechanism by which hives cause swelling and itching involves mast cells, which are located in the skin.Mast cells store a substance called histamine, and release it when they receive some kind of stimulus.This histamine acts on the skin and nerves, causing swelling and itching.
*If symptoms do not improve after 5-6 days of use, discontinue use and consult a doctor, pharmacist, or registered salesperson.
