Mastocytosis

Mastocytosis is a build-up of mast cells in the skin that causes itchy spots which swell when rubbed. Treatment focuses on controlling symptoms and avoiding triggers.

Symptoms & signs

Signs of Mastocytosis can vary from person to person. Common ones include:

  • Itchy brown or red spots
  • Spots that swell when rubbed
  • Flushing of the skin
  • Sometimes stomach upset or dizziness

When to see a dermatologist

  • The problem is spreading, worsening, or not improving with home care.
  • It is painful, itchy, bleeding, or affecting your sleep or confidence.
  • Over-the-counter creams have not helped after about two weeks.

Treatment approach

Treatment for Mastocytosis is tailored to you. After an accurate diagnosis, Dr. Maharania may recommend appropriate medicines and practical skin-care guidance — starting with the simplest effective plan and adjusting as your skin responds. Tests are suggested only when they would change treatment.

What to expect

1

Assessment

Dr. Maharania examines the affected area and asks about your history, triggers and any treatments you've already tried.

2

Diagnosis

A clear diagnosis — with simple tests only if needed — so treatment targets the real cause, not just the symptoms.

3

Personalised plan

A treatment plan suited to your skin type, the severity, and your daily routine — explained in plain language.

4

Follow-up

Review visits or WhatsApp check-ins to fine-tune the plan and track your progress over time.
