What does the app do?

Urticaria Xplained provides information about urticaria (hives) through storytelling. Using amusing comic-style, colourful graphics, you can follow Steph's experiences of urticaria and learn why urticaria occurs, including identifying triggers to manage the condition.

✘ There is no information on treatment options.

✘ Lack of app tools – it is simply a story about someone’s experience with chronic spontaneous urticaria.
