When the weather is cold and windy, my body, especially my joints, will turn red and even get some pimples and itching. It's been 3 or 4 years, so depressing!

It may be a special type of urticaria. Cold urticaria (cold type) is an allergic reaction caused by human exposure to cold environment. Edema and wheal often occur in the parts immersed in cold water or in contact with cold substances, mostly in the face and hands, but also in other parts, consciously itching, some headaches, skin flushing.

It is a sensitive reaction of the skin, so pay attention to avoid inducing factors.

Treatment is mainly antihistamines (loratadine, Avastin, mizolastine, etc. ), vitamin C, as well as ketotifen, cyproheptadine and doxepin can be used for cold type.

congratulations
