Theme and Key Messages

The theme of UDAY 2022 is BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.

What is Urticaria?

Urticaria (also known as hives) is a disease characterized by the sudden development of itchy pale red bumps (wheals, hives) on the skin. Wheals may present in variable sizes and shapes and have a fleeting nature, with the skin returning to its normal appearance in around 24 hours. These wheals may appear in certain parts of the body, or they may be generalized. Hives are often accompanied by swelling known as angioedema.

Be aware and make aware!

Raising awareness and informing society as a whole about what urticaria is and what it means to have it, is a prerequisite for an improved quality of life for those affected. An empowered and informed urticaria sufferer who becomes an advocate for themselves, and others can achieve a ripple effect on their environment improving the quality of life for everyone affected by urticaria.

Urticaria is not just a physical disease.

Urticaria can be physically debilitating and hard to treat. However, getting support for the mental health challenges that can arise as a comorbidity, must be recognized as a crucial component of treatment in order to improve overall better quality of life for those affected by urticaria.
