Chronic urticaria is a recurrent hypersensitivity skin disorder characterised by pruritic wheals and erythematous eruptions, often affecting the patient’s quality of life. This case presents a 45-year-old female who reported to the OPD of State Lal Bahadur Shastri Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Prayagraj, with complaints of recurrent urticarial eruptions for the past two years. The eruptions were associated with intense itching and burning, occurring with variable frequency. Boenninghausen’s complete symptom method was applied, and the treatment was guided by the totality of symptoms. Chloralum Hydratum 30C along with Phytum 30 (placebo) was prescribed. Improvement was assessed using the Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7). Over a period of six months, there was a gradual reduction in the intensity and frequency of eruptions, with UAS7 score showing a remarkable decline from 42 to 13, indicating significant clinical improvement. This case reflects the utility of homoeopathic management and highlights the role of symptomatic totality assessment in chronic urticaria.
