Introduction
In general, if it is acute urticaria, identifying the cause of the acute urticaria and promptly removing the triggering factors may offer a chance for complete cure. However, if it is chronic urticaria, a complete cure may be difficult to achieve. It is recommended to seek timely medical examination at a hospital and undergo symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a physician. Acute urticaria is usually associated with food, medications, environmental factors, and so on.

Generally, if it is acute urticaria, identifying the cause of the acute urticaria and promptly removing the triggering factors may provide an opportunity for complete cure. However, if it is chronic urticaria, a complete cure may be difficult. It is recommended to seek timely medical examination at a hospital and undergo symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a physician. The analysis is as follows:

Acute urticaria is usually related to food, medications, environmental factors, etc. If the triggers of urticaria can be clearly identified and exposure avoided as much as possible, it is possible to completely cure the condition. For example, patients allergic to seafood, nuts, or other foods may no longer experience urticaria outbreaks after avoiding these foods.

Chronic urticaria lasts longer than six weeks and has more complex causes, which may be associated with autoimmune diseases, chronic infections, psychological factors, or environmental factors. Chronic urticaria may not be completely curable, and the treatment goal is usually to control symptoms. Although some patients with chronic urticaria may experience symptom relief or even resolution with long-term management, others may experience recurring episodes.

During treatment, it is important to maintain a cheerful mood and avoid excessive emotional excitement. At the same time, one should rest regularly and avoid overexertion.
