Daily skin rashes and scalp allergy may be linked to dust, sweat, food, or fungal triggers. Oily/combination skin is prone to clogged pores and fungal sensitivity. Cetirizine helps symptoms but doesnt treat the root cause. A simple allergy profile and fungal screen can help identify triggers.

Hello Doctor, I have been suffering from food allergies for the last 2 to 3 years. According to my blood report, I am allergic to foods like lemon, orange, lady finger, eggs, clove, yeast, and paper dust. Because of these allergies, I experience skin itching on different parts of my body at any time. I have consulted many doctors, but the itching returns once the medication is finished. Please guide me on the treatment, diet, or medicines I should take and which specialist I should consult. Thank you. I am eagerly waiting for your valuable advice.
