The treatment for scabies mite allergic urticaria mainly includes:
1. Avoiding allergens: Eliminating mites by washing bed linens, performing thorough household cleaning, and using mite-removal devices. Additionally, avoiding the use of household items that easily harbor mites, such as carpets.
2. Medication: Depending on the severity of symptoms, topical treatments such as calamine lotion or mometasone furoate cream may be selected to relieve itching, or oral antihistamines such as loratadine or cetirizine may be taken for anti-allergic therapy. In severe cases, treatment by a physician, including injections or oxygen therapy, may be required.
3. Environmental control: Maintaining indoor ventilation and dryness, and regularly cleaning and sun-exposing bedding and clothing to reduce mite proliferation.
