Abstract:
There are few reports of localized urticaria with symptoms to similar to livedo racemosa (reticularis) in adults. Here we describe a rare case of localized cold urticaria (grade 1) on the face of a 32-yearfemale. The results of an ice cube test showed a positive reaction on the affected area (her cheeks). Treatment with anti-histamine (second generation) tablets, warming and avoidance of cold exposure were the best treatments for her cold urticaria in winter.
