I have skin rashes with itching, and when I scratch the area, it becomes swollen. What could be the cause, and how can I treat it?

Asked by Male, 37 · 9 days ago

This is commonly due to urticaria (skin allergy), in which scratching causes swelling and raised, itchy patches. It may be triggered by food, medicines, heat, stress, or other allergens. Avoid triggers, keep the skin cool, and consult a doctor who may prescribe anti-allergy medicine for relief.
