In brief While most cases of cold urticaria are mild and characterized only by pruritus, severe anaphylactic reaction is possible. Our patient, a healthy male runner, experienced intermittent and sometimes severe pruritus and severe urticaria after running in the cold. Avoiding cold air and cold water or using prophylactic medications that suppress the release of mast cell mediators has proved modestly successful in preventing and treating cold urticaria. Patients who develop cold urticaria often improve with time.
简而言之，虽然大多数寒冷性荨麻疹病例症状较轻，仅表现为瘙痒，但严重的过敏反应仍有可能发生。我们的患者是一名健康的男性跑步爱好者，在寒冷环境中跑步后出现间歇性且有时较为严重的瘙痒和严重荨麻疹。事实证明，避免冷空气和冷水，或使用抑制肥大细胞介质释放的预防性药物，在预防和治疗寒冷性荨麻疹方面取得了一定成效。患寒冷性荨麻疹的患者通常会随着时间推移而有所好转。
