Cholinergic urticaria is quite common. It
is caused by sweating and is sometimes
called heat bumps. The urticarial rash is
quite distinct as the weals are very small
(2-3 mm) with a red flare around each one.
The rash appears within a few minutes of
sweating and tends to be worst on the
chest, back and arms. The rash lasts from
30 minutes to an hour or more before
fading away. Some people become slightly
wheezy and short of breath for the
duration of the rash.
The sweating that triggers the rash may be
due to exercise, heat, fever, emotion or
eating spicy food. It can be a real
nuisance when trying to exercise. In
severe cases, hundreds of tiny weals
develop when you run or do other types of
exercise. Sometimes the tiny weals join
together to form larger ones. Cholinergic
urticaria most commonly first develops in
early adult life. In many cases the
condition tends to improve after a few
years and it goes or becomes less severe.
If anyone has what is explained at the
top, It could be helped: I heard this guy
who had Cholinergic urticaria ran mornings
and evenings for 6 months, he just
ignored the pain and rash and kept
running, eliminating his CU completely. I
think this may be a cure because I ran for
about 3 miles ignoring the pain of the
rash. Just a little while later, while
running, it went away and I was able to do
all the things that would normally bring
the rash out, but it never came not even a
tickle. This piece of heaven lasted about
a week. I really do believe this can
eliminate CU. With help from God and
prayer I think we can do it. Any questions
