Is it possible for me to own cold urticaria and warmth urticaria?
I have cold urticaria which acts up whenever I'm in the cold, whether it be wet or just the weather, and I can't eat ice cream or drink rime water and everything else that goes along with it.
so own food allergies and am allergic to animals. . .and pressure. . .and makeup and lotion. . . and soap. . .
Anyway the list goes on.
I am very fair skinned and if I take a hot tub my skin does turn completely red, but I always figured that was everyday, is that connected to the lip thing?
I just want to know what people mull over. Thanks.
Answers: You can have urticaria triggered by several different conditions- cold, heat, pressure, vibration, solar to signature some. Think of it as a condition that is always present and when there is a trigger you carry the outbreak of hives.
going to add some references that I have found over the years and also communicate you a little about my problems with urticaria and a solution that worked for me.
I have urticaria for 10 years, triggered mainly by pressure but sometimes by heat or cold. I found that a combination of claritin D and serevent or advair worked to keep the outbreaks from occurring and that if I did have an outbreak 8-12 mg of medrol would ease them and usually break it up quickly.
If you want to try this, I recommend you get your doctor to test you for celiac disease and dermititis herpetiformis BEFORE you try a gluten free diet. The check isn't valid unless you are still eating gluten containing foods. Then if the tests are positive, you will have a diagnosis and run on a gluten free diet and you should see a lessening of symptoms. If the tests are negative, still try the gluten free diet for 2-3 months to rule out non-celiac gluten intolerance or a gluten allergy.
Good luck and if you hold more questions, contact me through here. Source(s): http://www.chronichives.com/pages/whatis…
