I have had uticaria pigmentosa for about 6 years - does progressively get worse each year. After seeing several dermatoligists, it was determined that I should just stay out of situations that trigger it: the sun, hot baths/hot tubs/saunas, extreme excercise. I was perscribed an antihistimine (Claritin) to take on a daily basis, but only did this for a few months, because I did not notice a difference when I took it. I know it is primarily a cosmetic problem (meaning not health or life-threatening) but it is disturbing to think it is progressing, and nothing can really be done. Any feedback or information appreciated - please e-mail. Thanks!
