Cold-induced urticaria (CU) is a chronic physical urticaria that can be hard to diagnose and manage. Symptoms of CU can vary from mild localised urticaria, angio-oedema to anaphylaxis. CU may be induced by a wide range of cold triggers from aquatic activities to ingestions of cold substances. This exemplifies the importance of accurate diagnosis and management of patients with CU. We present three cases of CU that demonstrate the variability in triggers and clinical presentation.
寒冷性荨麻疹(CU)是一种慢性物理性荨麻疹,可能难以诊断和处理。CU的症状从轻度局限性荨麻疹、血管性水肿到过敏反应不等。从水上活动到摄入冷物质,多种寒冷诱因都可能诱发CU。这体现了对CU患者进行准确诊断和处理的重要性。我们呈现三例CU病例,以展示诱因和临床表现的多样性。
