How to Say “Hives” in Persian

کهیر
The English word "hives" is translated into Persian as کهیر.

Did you know?

  • In Persian, the term کهیر can sometimes be used to refer to the physical stinging nettle plant itself, not just the skin reaction. This links the botanical cause directly to the medical symptom in the name.
  • When a Persian speaker attributes hives to باد, they are not blaming the wind outside, but rather internal 'vapors' or 'wind' within the body's systems.
  • Persian speakers often use the verb زدن, which normally means 'to hit' or 'to strike', to describe the act of breaking out in کهیر.

Examples in context

  • روی پوست من کهیر زده است.
    ruye puste man kahir zade ast.
    I have hives on my skin.
  • این کهیر به خاطر حساسیت است؟
    in kahir be khatere hassasiyat ast?
    Are these hives because of an allergy?
  • دارو برای درمان کهیر می‌خواهم.
    daru baraye darmane kahir mikhaham.
    I want medicine to treat the hives.
