HELLO,
You are experiencing recurring hives - red, itching, raised patches or rashes that come and go
You said -they appear after waking up, sometimes after drinking warm water and tea -they also appear at the gym or office -exercise and sweating may reduce them sometimes -theydisapper with antihistamines -you had this problem 3 years ago; it was treated but has returned after 2 years
Hives occur when histamine and other chemicals are released for your skin cells (mast cells), causing redness, itching, and swelling
Triggers can include -heat, stress, or sweat -hot beverages -certain foods or allergens -hormonal or immune imbalance
So, your immune system is overeacting to normal stimuli
In Ayurveda, this is known as “Sheetpitta” or “Udarda” - a skin disorder caused by imbalance of doshas, daily vata and pitta, sometimes involving kapha -Pitta controls heat, digestio, and metabolism when aggravated (by tea, hot water, stress, exercise), it creates excess body heat and toxins (ama) -Vata controls movement and circulation.when disturbed, it spreads these toxins to the skin, causing itching and wheals -Kapha can trap these toxins, leading to swelling and sticky secretions
So, it’s a vata-pitta dominant tridoshaja kushta (skin disorder due to all three doshas, with vata and pitta more disturbed)
TREATMENT GOALS -remove root cause -purify the blood -strengthen the immune system -soothe the skin and reduce inflammation -prevent recurrence by balancing doshas

Recurring hives or urticaria can indeed be unsettling. From an Ayurvedic perspective, these may indicate an imbalance in pitta dosha, since hives are often linked to heat and inflammation within the body. Such reactions can be exacerbated by stress, diet, or environmental factors, which seem to align with your current experience.
First, assessing your morning routine, consuming warm water is generally beneficial, yet tea, particularly if it’s strong or taken with milk and sugar, may further aggravate the pitta. Consider switching to herbal teas like chamomile or peppermint, which are cooling.
Before heading to the gym, you might try taking a pinch of turmeric in warm water — its anti-inflammatory properties can potentially minimize the recurrence of hives. After exercise, a quick rinse with cool water can further help calm skin irritations.
At your office, make sure to stay hydrated with cool water throughout the day. Lunch should be freshly cooked and avoid very spicy, fermented, or fried foods. These can provoke heat within the body leading to hives.
Incorporate cooling foods like cucumbers, cilantro, and mint in your daily diet to maintain pitta balance. Aloe vera juice, when consumed on an empty stomach in the morning, might also aid in cooling the system down.
Practices like Shitali or Sheetali Pranayama, which are cooling breathing techniques — if done consistently, may help regulate body heat. Ensure you’re practicing yoga or any type of physical activity in a cool, rather than heated, environment.
Keep a diary tracking what meals or situations precede hive appearances, allowing you to identify potential triggers. Avoid hot showers immediately after vigorous exercise as they might exacerbate the condition.
If conventional medications are needed for control — as further indicated by your dermatologist — do not hesitate to continue with them, but it is essential to keep track of any recurring patterns that may emerge due to environmental, dietary, or emotional factors. Always communicate your symptoms and remedies with your healthcare provider.
