Cold Urticaria
Cold urticaria is a condition where hives or large red welts form on the skin after exposure to cold. Symptoms of cold urticaria typically include itching, swelling, and redness. These reactions occur when the body releases histamine in response to cold stimuli. Management often involves antihistamines and avoiding cold exposure.
