Using steroid injections to treat urticaria may have some physical effects, and it is generally recommended to use them for a short period of time and in appropriate doses under the guidance of a doctor. The following are common situations:
1. Significant short-term effects: Hormone injections can quickly relieve itching and redness, and are suitable for acute and severe flare-ups.
2. May cause discomfort: Some people may experience temporary increased appetite, changes in sleep, or mood swings.
3. Long-term use requires attention: Frequent use may increase the risk of weight gain and bone changes, but the risk is low when used as directed by a doctor for short-term treatment.
4. Significant individual differences: Different people respond differently to hormones, and it is necessary to observe changes in oneself after taking the medication.
It is recommended that you communicate fully with your doctor to clarify the purpose and duration of medication; record your body's reactions during treatment to avoid increasing or decreasing the dosage on your own; and you can also use care methods such as cold compresses and avoiding scratching to reduce the occurrence of urticaria.
