Urticaria (దద్దుర్లు)

Urticaria is a common condition that is estimated to affect arround 1 in 6 people at some point in their lives.

It can reoccur periodically over a 1 to 5 years time period but a small number of people experience hives for up to 50 years.

The period over which people experience hives is dependent on the type and severity of their urticaria.

In some cases, hives are also accompanied by sudden and often painful, swelling in the deeper layers of the skin, known medically as angioedema.

Angioedama most commonly effects the eyelids and lips but it can also affects the ge****ls, tounge, hands and feet.

You may be surprised to hear that the itch and hives found with Urticaria are often related to your immune system.

For treatment consult a doctor.

Negative effects of Smoking on Psoriasis.

Psoriasis is common, chronic, immune medicated inflammatory disease in which there is an uncontrolled proliferation of Keratinocytes.

Pathenogenesis may be widely genetic, and as well environmental factors play a role in its development. Smoking, alcohol consumption, obesity, stressful life/events and infections affects many aspects of psoriasis.

Smoking is directly or indirectly associated with a significant number of adverse cutaneous effects. Smoking has repeatedly been identified as potential risk factor for Psoriasis. Ni****ne cholinergic receptors have been identified on keratinocytes and ni****ne is known to accelerate the rate of keratinocyte differentiation. Furthermore ni****ne activates dendrite cells and enhances their ability to stimulate T Cell proliferation and cytokine secretion and thereby activates the adaptive immune system.

To***co consumption and childhood exposure to ETS were found to be significantly associated with Psoriasis in this population based twin study.To***co consumption increases the risk for Psoriasis by more than twice in smokers with a history of more than 5 packs per year.

Genetic factors explain 20% of the correlation between Psoriasis and smoking based on the results.

We discourage smoking as it is associated with an increased risk for Psoriasis.
