Physical Urticaria

Physical urticaria is a type of hives triggered by specific physical stimuli, such as pressure, temperature changes, sunlight, or exercise. When the skin experiences these triggers, it reacts by developing itchy, red welts. This condition can vary in severity and duration, depending on the individual and the trigger. Unlike common allergies, physical urticaria is related to how the body responds to certain physical conditions rather than substances. Managing it often involves avoiding known triggers and may require antihistamines or other treatments to reduce symptoms. It's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and management.
