what is cold urticaria and how to deal with it

How to help yourself if the skin becomes blistered in cold weather.

Those who experience it will agree: the feeling is not pleasant when, under the influence of low temperature, redness and even itchy blisters appear on the body. This reaction of the body to low temperatures is called cold allergy. How can you help yourself during this period?

Causes of hives

According to scientists, skin cells in some people have an increased sensitivity to low temperatures. There is no scientific justification for this phenomenon, it is suggested that either genetics can influence this, or these are the consequences of some changes in the body that occur due to viral infections or other diseases.

Cold allergies are most common in children, teenagers, young adults, or those with chronic illnesses.

How to treat cold allergies

I don’t want to disappoint those who suffer from this problem, but there is no cure for this kind of hives. In the warm season, the disease recedes.

If you live in a region with a cold climate, your doctor will prescribe antihistamines for you to take before going outside.

You can prevent cold allergies only if you reduce the effect of low temperatures on the skin.

Dress warmly, clothes should be made of natural fabrics, try to cover your face from frost in the cold season and be sure to lubricate your skin with a greasy cream.
