Cockle Allergy Hives: How Long Do They Last?

by Archynetys Health Desk

hello. It is a real-time problem solver.
[피부과]You have concerns about this. We will answer your questions.

After consuming cockles, you may develop hives due to an allergic reaction and feel very uncomfortable.

Allergic urticaria generally appears within a few hours after ingesting the causative agent (cockles), and most cases subside within 24-48 hours. However, the duration may vary depending on the individual.

To relieve symptoms:

  • Taking antihistamines may help
  • Be careful not to scratch the itchy area
  • It is also a good idea to soothe your skin with a cool shower or cold towel.
  • Stay well hydrated

If symptoms persist for more than 48 hours or if you experience serious symptoms such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or lips, or dizziness, you should visit a medical institution immediately.

From now on, we recommend that you be careful when consuming seafood similar to cockles, and get an allergy test if allergic reactions occur repeatedly.
