    TLDR The document concludes that fexofenadine reduces inflammation in chronic hives, cholestyramine helps half of pregnant women with itchy rashes, and relaxing incisions are a good alternative in facial surgery for the elderly.
    The document reports on various dermatological studies and cases. One case involved a 65-year-old woman who was initially misdiagnosed with sarcoidosis but later confirmed to have pulmonary tuberculosis. Another study examined the effects of fexofenadine on 17 patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria, finding that the drug significantly reduced the expression of certain skin mediators, suggesting an anti-inflammatory effect. Additionally, a study treated 80 pregnant women with prurigo gestationis using cholestyramine, resulting in complete remission for 50% of the participants. The document also describes a case of a patient with psoriasis vulgaris and vitiligo who developed bullous pemphigoid and responded well to prednisone. Lastly, it discusses the use of relaxing incisions in cutaneous facial surgery for elderly patients as an alternative to more complex closures.
