Itchiness All Over Body After Warm Bath. What Could Be The Reason?

For the last few weeks every time I get hot, I start itching but not only itching, it feels like bees stings me and tiching all over my body. I do not get a rash or turn red. it even happens when I take a warm bath, I only have to get warm not really hot. I can make it from my house to my car before this happens that how fast it starts. Any information would be great thanks..

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
You are most likely suffering from Cholinergic urticaria in which acetylcholine gets release after warm exposure.
You should consult with dermatologist and should take anti-cholinergic medication and avoid warm bath
Thanks,
