9 Potential Causes of Chronic Hives

Updated March 1, 2019

7. Celiac Disease腹腔疾病

Because it’s not annoying enough to have to cope with abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, and the other typical symptoms of celiac disease, you may also have to cope with an itchy red rash. Chronic hives are already associated with some other autoimmune conditions, and celiac disease is considered an “immune-mediated disease.”

因为要应付腹痛、腹胀、腹泻和其他典型的腹腔疾病症状还不够烦人，你可能还得应付发痒的红疹。已知道慢性荨麻疹与其他一些自身免疫疾病有关，腹腔疾病被认为是一种“免疫介导的疾病”

8. Lupus狼疮

As we’ve already noted, some autoimmune diseases have been linked to some cases of chronic hives. Add lupus to the list. Again, it’s not common, but some people develop autoimmune urticaria as an early symptom of lupus.

我们已经注意到，一些自身免疫性疾病与慢性荨麻疹有关。把狼疮列入名单。同样，这并不常见，但有些人会患自身免疫性荨麻疹，成为狼疮的早期症状。

9. Unknown Causes 不明原因

This is the catch-all category, but for good reason. Far and away, most cases of chronic hives can’t be traced back to a specific cause. Chronic hives that don’t have a known cause are called chronic idiopathic urticaria. Idiopathic literally means “cause unknown.” As many as 80% of cases of chronic hives fit into this category. But researchers are working hard to determine the root of chronic hives, and today we have more treatment options than ever before, thanks to this work.

这是一个包罗万象的类别，但有充分的理由。大多数慢性荨麻疹都无法追溯到特定的病因。原因不明的慢性荨麻疹被称为慢性特发性荨麻疹。特发性的字面意思是“原因不明”。多达80%的慢性荨麻疹病例属于这一类。但是研究人员正在努力确定慢性荨麻疹的根源，由于这项工作，今天我们比以往任何时候都有更多的治疗选择。
