Scientists from the USA National Institutes of Health have identified a genetic mutation in three unrelated families that causes a rare immune disorder characterized by excessive and impaired immune function: immune deficiency, autoimmunity, inflammatory skin disorders and cold-induced hives (cold urticaria). 1985;13:636-644. 2000;80:229.

Hence, it is also subdivided as acquired Cold Urticaria (most common form) and familial Cold Urticaria (very rare form) respectively, Any temperature that is lower than normal body temperature may constitute a cold stimulus, and it need not be very cold or freezing temperatures. Involvement of sensory nerve endings in cold and heat urticaria. [17] Pressing on a hive causes the skin to blanch distinguishing it from a bruise or papule. Unauthorized use prohibited. Some rare conditions[specify] can cause cold hives, and it can be useful to test for these conditions if the cold hives are in any way unusual. The signs and symptoms of Cold Urticaria may be mild or severe, localized or diffused (and sometimes, extensive), and can vary from one individual to another.

Results and relevance of critical temperature threshold testing in patients with acquired cold urticaria. A positive result is a specific looking mark of raised red hives.

The exposure may be of any form - via cold air, cold water, or through direct contact of ice or cold surfaces with skin, Cold Urticaria forms a subset of chronic inducible urticaria, a form of chronic urticaria, in which the signs and symptoms usually occur within a few minutes of exposure to the stimuli (or a known trigger). James, William; Berger, Timothy; Elston, Dirk (2005). The American Journal of Human Genetics, 70(6), 1498-1506. 2010;162:191-194. It is probably the most common form of physical urticaria (hives). Seventy-eight percent of survey participants described an impact of the disease on their work, including absenteeism and impaired job advancement; frequently, they quit their job as a consequence of their disease". The threshold temperature of tolerance for each individual (which may vary from one individual to another), dictates the temperature below which hives/skin rashes and other symptoms develop in that particular individual, Initially, localized itching of skin may be observed; the skin may appear swollen, Formation of skin rashes or weals (wheals) that are associated with redness (or pinkish discoloration) and intense itching, The skin surrounding the affected area (weal) may be normal skin color or appear red (erythema).
