"CSU is characterised by the sudden appearance of uncomfortable hives and affects about 1pc of the population."
"We've all had a breakout or an itchy rash for one reason or another. But generally, these minor ailments improve with medication or disappear of their own accord."
"Without any prior warning, one night in 2015, I woke up, bolt upright, with an intense itch and burning around my right cheek, chin and down the neck as far as my clavicle," she says."
Chronic spontaneous urticaria produces sudden, uncomfortable hives and affects roughly 1% of the population. Common minor rashes typically improve with treatment or resolve on their own. In one case, symptoms began overnight without warning, producing intense itching and burning localized to the right cheek, chin and down the neck to the clavicle. The onset was abrupt and severe, contrasting with ordinary temporary breakouts. The condition persisted beyond initial occurrence and required long-term management rather than a short recovery.
