Patient: hii doctor..when i am excited or go out in the sun..i get red patches all over my body..and it itches badly..and i have noticed that this happens more when i consume egg or skip breakfast...please help me out...it feels really bad when my body itches.. Doctor: Hello.Thank you for asking at HCM.I went through your history and would like to make suggestions to you as follows:1. Were I treating you, I would suggest you to take an antihistamine like cetirizine or levocetirizine when you develop itchy red patches (hives).2. I would also suggest you to apply a good moisturizing cream with SPF 15 or more.3. I would also suggest you to consume foods rich in vitamin A like ripe mango, carrots, spinach, etc.4. Personally I would suggest you to avoid hot/spicy foods/beverages.5. I would also suggest you allergy testing for eggs, if it is positive, I would suggest you to avoid eating eggs for at least 3-6 months.Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.Wish you the best of the health.Thank you & Regards.
