Urticaria or Hives are itchy, burning swellings that appear on the skin as an indication of an allergic sensitivity to various allergens specially with a family history. The development of Urticaria occurs when the body releases histamines into the blood stream or tissues as an allergic response causing widening of the capillaries thereby allowing the plasma to escape through its walls resulting in swellings on skin surface.

Urticaria appears as red/white blotches on the skin accompanied by itching & burning. Bakson’s Urtica Aid helps relieve intolerable itching, stinging pains of Hives/Urticaria & symptoms of Angioedema besides fighting ill effects of suppressed Urtiaria.
