Urticaria also known hives are red bumps on skin or swelling on the surface of your skin and happen due to allergic reaction when exposed to allergen. Urticaria have symptoms like itching with burning or stinging [1].
This article deals with a case report of a 44 year old patient with chronic urticaria from 20 years. After detailed case taking and repertorisation from Kent repertory [2], Pulsatilla was prescribed on the basis of repertorisation with few doses of Sulphur as intercurrent. Urticaria severity was assessed based on Urticaria activity score 7(UAS7) [3]. This is based on the assessment of key urticaria signs and symptoms (wheals and pruritus), which are documented by the patient. The patient responded well and within 2 months got relieved from the complaints.
