Aquagenic Urticaria: There is a type of physical urticaria called aquagenic urticaria. But it could also be due to a separate physical urticaria. Recommendations are cooler showers and increased doses of oral antihistamines (within reason).http://www.acaai.org/allergist/allergies/types/skin-allergies/hives/pages/default.aspx.
