Urticaria - specifically pressure urticaria

[Foxinsocks]

Does anyone here have delayed pressure urticaria (or even just normal urticaria)?

having suffered from a painful, burning rash for about 10 years which has mystified the GP (i.e. they stopped trying to figure out what it was lol), I have realised today (eureka), that it is delayed pressure urticaria.

The only reason I realised this is that I have travelled a fair bit over the past few weeks and developed this rash both times on the hand that I was using to carry my suitcase. I also sometimes get it on my feet from standing and on my waist where my clothes are too tight!

I googled pressure rash and there it is!

I can't tell you how excited I am but now I'd like to know if anyone has it and how they treat it!

However, interestingly, I believe there is a link to other symptoms i have. I am in good health and take no medication whatsoever. I dont smoke or drink and am slim. I do suffer from Raynauds and very fine hair which can be a pain.

I am convinced there is a link.

Thank you everyone for your helpful responses. My docs aren't really taking it serious. Any irritation causes an outbreak and now if I get the cold my throat is swelling so it feels like I can't breath. Don't want to go back to doc after going to a&e with breathing difficulty and told it was just the cold and to go home......
