Hello there, whenever my wife eat something thing like, chapati, tea, milk, chana etc. She gets hives & rashes all over the skin. Kindly guide me for the same. Why this is happening. Might be due to lactose intolerance or food intolerance?

Dear Lybrate user, hives and rashes are most probably due to allergy to one or more factors ---to control allergic process -----always take ant-i allergic medicines-- at the moment your symptoms start---if you are waiting --the symptoms may aggravate to dangerous levels --- simultaneously you start a scrutiny for the particular food item or items --which cause allergy in her --note the names of such items in a book---where ever you are going--keep that booklet with you and scrutinise the food and other items-- before her use --so that--she will be saved from allercic reactions-- -allergic clinics also can help you in finding out more of her allergens ----tell her ---be happy---confident--- optimistic ---accept this small problem as part of life and live with it --- -i am a doctor of 72 years --living happily with so many allergens ---you also can have a long happy life-- provided you accept and adjust with your allergens ---ok.
