What can cause an angioedema on 15 year old girl?

I’ve been getting angioedema signs on my left arm for the past few weeks, not severe but it itches and sure don’t help my low-as-it-is self esteem…

  • The following may cause angioedema -

    Animal dander
    Certain medications (drug allergy)
    Emotional stress
    Exposure to water, sunlight, cold or heat
    Foods (such as berries, shellfish, nuts, eggs, milk, other)
    Insect bites
    Pollen

    Hives or angioedema may also occur after an illness or infection.
    Try to see if you were exposed to any of this and report it to your Dr.

  • Angioedema is similar to hives, but the swelling is beneath the skin rather than on the surface.
    Angioedema may be caused by an allergic reaction but sometimes the cause of it is never found and this is called idiopathic.
    Have you talked to your physician? Could be a good idea.

  • The other name for Angioedema is Skin Hives. There can be many reasons for the the spots that have grown on your left arm; like allergy from any food substance or from any particular drug.

    Hives is a very serious skin disease that should not be taken lightly. To cure you of the skin hives on the left arm, take 6 table spoon of oatmeal and 3 table spoon of starch grain and mix them well in a bucket full of water. Bathe in that water and continue the procedure for 2 weeks. At the end of 2 weeks, the spots from your arm will be gone.

    If the hives are not gone, then I would suggest you to use Oxy-Hives.
    It is a homeopathic treatment that is available in spray form. A friend of mine had developed serious skin hives on his body. He used this ointment for 2 months regularly and was then cured of this disease.
