A member asked:
Why do i develop severe hives from cold weather exposure ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cold urticaria is an unusual condition that usually affects young adults. The cause is unclear and an evaluation to rule out any contributing medical problem is worthwhile. The cold triggers release of histamine that brings on the hives. Management with medications is helpful. I would seek help from your doc.
