Urticaria is a frequent disease in childhood, which almost every child had. Usually, the presence of distinct urticaria does not present difficulties in nosological diagnosis, but many factors in account for its development cause challenge for doctors in choosing tactics for therapy. Traditionally the triggers of urticaria in children are food allergens and drugs, and that is why pediatricians unreasonably eliminate many foods from the baby's nutrition for a long time. We analyzed the causes of acute and chronic urticaria in children hospitalized in the department of pediatrics over the ten-year period.
