The topic Stress-Induced Urticaria you are seeking is a synonym, or alternative name, or is closely related to the medical condition Cholinergic Urticaria.

Quick Summary:

• Urticaria is a common inflammatory condition of skin that results in weals (red skin sign with itching) and/or angioedema (swelling due to fluid accumulation). It is seen in individuals of a wide age group and may be described as acute or chronic, based on the duration of the signs and symptoms
• Cholinergic Urticaria (ChU or CU) is a common form of urticaria that develops due to body temperature increase, caused by factors, such as participation in athletic sports, intense physical activities, or even following emotional stress/trauma
• Cholinergic 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)
• ChU is also known variously as Sweat Urticaria or Stress Urticaria and is more common among the younger population. This skin condition may arise following exercise, hot environments, or hot showers too, which leads to an elevation in one’s body temperature
• Due to increased stress or physical exertion, tiny red or white weals form on the exposed surfaces (neck and chest/back) that may present severe itching. Angioedema is reported in some cases of Cholinergic Urticaria
• In most individuals, the symptoms are mild and no treatment is necessary. In others with severe symptoms, the treatment may involve cooling the body, use of antihistamine medications, and immunosuppressive therapy
• The prognosis of Cholinergic Urticaria with adequate treatment is usually good, although the condition can recur. In a few individuals, complications including breathing difficulties, shock, and anaphylaxis may develop
