Cold-Allergy Does Exist. Here Are Tips To Prevent This Allergy.
A social media user who shares her experience about her allergy. She has a cold allergy or Cold Urticaria.
According to her Facebook post, Cold Urticaria is a skin reaction to cold that appears within minutes after cold exposure. The affected skin develops reddish, itchy welts (hives).
People with cold urticaria experience widely different symptoms. Some have minor reactions to the cold, while others have severe reactions. For some people with this condition, swimming in cold water could lead to very low blood pressure, fainting or shock. Cold urticaria signs and symptoms may include:
-Temporary reddish, itchy welts (hives) on the area of skin that was exposed to cold
-A worsening of the reaction as the skin warms
-Swelling of hands while holding cold objects
-Swelling of lips from consuming cold food or drink
Severe reactions may include:
-A worsening of the reaction as the skin warms
-Swelling of hands while holding cold objects
-Swelling of lips from consuming cold food or drink
Severe reactions may include:
-A whole-body response (anaphylaxis), which can cause fainting, a racing heart, swelling of limbs or torso, and shock
-Swelling of the tongue and throat, which can make it difficult to breathe
-Swelling of the tongue and throat, which can make it difficult to breathe
Cold urticaria symptoms begin soon after the skin is exposed to a sudden drop in air temperature or to cold water. Damp and windy conditions may make a flare of symptoms more likely. Each episode may persist for about two hours.
The worst reactions generally occur with full skin exposure, such as swimming in cold water. Such a reaction could lead to loss of consciousness and drowning. If you have skin reactions after cold exposure, see your doctor. Even if the reactions are mild, your doctor will want to rule out underlying conditions that may be causing the problem.
Seek emergency care if after sudden exposure to cold you experience a whole-body response (anaphylaxis) or difficulty breathing.

FOR THOSE WHO ARE ASKING ABOUT THE COLD URTICARIA:
Try to take anti-histamine po. Yun po kasi yung gamot na iniinom ko to lessen the hives na lumalabas sa balat ko kapag inaatake ako ng allergy ko. Mas okay po kung yung non-drowsy yung iinumin nyo kasi mas maayos sa pakiramdam. But try to consult with a doctor po muna before taking anti-histamine kasi baka mas may prescribed pa na gamot sila sa inyo. Yun lamang po, maraming salamat.
