Specialty

Symptoms
Tiny very itchy wheals and small bumps on a reddish background.[1]
Cholinergic urticaria is a type of hives (urticaria) that is triggered by an increase in body temperature, such as during exercise, sweating, or exposure to heat. It is also sometimes called exercise-induced urticaria or heat hives. The condition is caused by an overreaction of the immune system to the release of histamine and other chemicals in response to the increase in body temperature. This results in the characteristic red, itchy, and sometimes raised bumps or welts on the skin that are associated with hives.
Cholinergic urticaria can be painful and uncomfortable and may interfere with daily activities.
