The patient’s face, hands and feet had developed swelling, erythema and pruritus after exposure to snow, after he entered cold water, and in cold air, for the last six months. Hepatitis markers and cryoglobulin were negative. An ice cube test was performed and found positive. This case is presented to remind cold urticaria, a rare type of physical urticaria
