TCM for Hives Treatment in Singapore

Hives, also known as urticaria, are itchy, raised welts that appear suddenly on your skin when your body releases histamine in response to a perceived threat. This causes blood vessels to leak fluid beneath the skin, creating red or flesh-coloured bumps that vary in size and shape.

These welts can appear anywhere on your body and cause intense itching and swelling, and sometimes a burning or stinging sensation. Common triggers include certain foods (such as nuts, shellfish, or eggs), medications, and environmental factors such as pollen or insect bites.

At Thomson Chinese Medicine, your first visit begins with a consultation, where your physician will assess the root cause of your hives and provide a personalised treatment plan.

The consultation fee depends on the seniority of your physician, who will provide a detailed cost breakdown during your visit.

Treatment costs for hives include acupuncture from SGD 87.20 per session and customised herbal medicine from SGD 14.17 per day for adults. If necessary, your physician can also recommend dietary therapy and lifestyle guidance tailored to your condition.
