Some People Are Allergic to Their Own Sweat
A rare condition called cholinergic urticaria causes people to break out in hives when their body temperature rises—even slightly.
Triggers can include:
- Exercise
- Hot showers
- Emotional stress
In extreme cases, even mild sweating can lead to:
- Burning or stinging skin
- Tiny, itchy welts
- Discomfort during normal daily activities
