I've been dealing with chronic urticaria for about a year now, and I'm really not sure what to do about it. I've been taking 5 mg of levocetirizine the whole time, but I'm still struggling. How should I go about treating this? Is there something else I should be trying or asking my doctor about? It's been quite frustrating, and I'm just looking for some guidance.

Try to identify the triggering factor and try to avoid it,that is the tretament for urticaria ,and levocet is the drug of choice,apart from that consume more fruits and stay hydrated that will help in fighting the allergen

I've been dealing with this slight mucus at the back of my throat for a few months, but I don't usually cough because of it. However, every time I go swimming, I end up sneezing a lot and my nose gets really runny. I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about or if it's just a normal reaction.

I'm really worried about my IgE levels; they're at 1074 kUAL. My fingers get swollen in winter, and I'm starting to think I might have an allergy to cold temperatures. I've been taking Allegra 180 for two weeks, but my IgE levels haven't changed. With the COVID vaccine, I'm concerned about having a severe reaction. Do you think it's safe for me to get vaccinated?
