Why do my fingers itch after playing in the snow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cold Urticaria: In some people, prolonged exposue to cold can trigger a histamine response, which is what makes an insect bite itch. It is best to avoid the cold if possible, where gloves, and if needed take an antihistamine like Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or claritan. If this does not help, see an allergist.
