Question

I've been dealing with hives for the last three months, and it's been pretty frustrating. My dermatologist put me on Allegra and Elina Tablet for a month. But as soon as I stopped the meds, the hives came back. I was told to continue Elina for another 40 days, but they returned the day after I finished the course. Is there really no long-term solution for hives? I'm getting really tired of this cycle.

Question

I've been dealing with this itchy skin at the back of my knees for like 15 years now, and it's left me with dark scars because I can't help but scratch. A dermatologist gave me a lotion, oatmeal soap, and some antihistamine about 3 years ago. It all worked while I used it for 3 months, but once I stopped, the problem came back. What can I do to make this itchiness go away for good?
