As per my report, IgE antibody is high. This problem has been there for many years. I have itching in the body which stops after taking Cetirizine and some dark patches in the pelvic area. Please explain in detail?

Elevated IgE levels usually indicate an allergic tendency or chronic skin condition like eczema or atopic dermatitis. If the itching is controlled by Cetirizine, it is likely allergy related. However, dark patches in the pelvic area may need further evaluation for skin changes due to prolonged scratching or other causes. Long term management should be discussed with a dermatologist.
