- Abstract
This article presents the case study of a patient suffering from delayed pressure urticaria, cold urticaria and chronic urticaria. During the summer of 1986 she noticed itchy red lesions on both legs which became more frequent over the next few months and more localized to the posterior aspects of thighs, knees and extensor aspects of forearms. For 4 years she developed "nettle rash" after swimming in a cold sea or swimming pool with no associated systemic features. Tender erythematous swellings are seen after sustained pressure on localized areas of skin.
