    Contact urticaria causes skin reactions like hives upon contact with certain substances. In some cases, it can lead to severe systemic reactions, with foods like fruits and vegetables being common triggers.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Allergology
    • Immunology

    Context:

    • Contact urticaria presents with immediate skin reactions upon contact with specific allergens.
    • It can manifest as localized urticaria or trigger systemic symptoms, collectively termed contact urticaria syndrome.
    • Classification includes immunological, non-immunological, and unidentified causes.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the clinical characteristics and common causes of contact urticaria.
    • To highlight the prevalence of food-induced contact urticaria, particularly from fruits and vegetables.

    Summary:

    • Contact urticaria involves erythematosus whealing lesions following skin apposition with certain substances.
    • Systemic reactions such as rhinoconjunctivitis, asthma, and anaphylactic shock can occur, defining contact urticaria syndrome.
