Mrutunjay Dash, Ajaya Kumar Jena

Abstract :

Childhood urticaria is not so uncommon in children, though the acute form of urticaria is more common than the chronic one. There are many conditions which can mimic urticaria like lesions in children which initially may point towards the diagnosis of simple urticaria, but those are really a different one. In this prospective study we are highlighting those mimickers which have got more clinical significance in children. Not much of studies about the incidences and prevalence of these types of skin conditions had done in recent years.
