Hello /fit/,

This is my first time posting here so go easy on me. For the past two years i've had a problem while exercising and it hasn't bugged me a whole lot til now. Every once in awhile after working out or working in general my face and upper body will feel like it's being poked by hot needles, it's also kind of itchy,too.

I have no skin conditions, i'm quite active too. I feel some times it get better if I drink more water but even if I drink 1-2 liters a day it still occurs some times. I don't drink any type of cola often and maybe once or twice a month i'll have an energy drink. I don't eat much stuff with salt in it either, i'm not a fan of fast food aswell.

Any advice?

It's probably an allergy to dust or some sort of carpet or something. I had the same thing a few years back, went to a doctor about it. It just sorta stopped around the time I left for college.

Almost the same thing happens to me.

For me, when it happens, it is usually right when my heart rate starts climbing and I really start sweating. It's worst on my forehead, shoulders, and back.

It sounds like we are talking about the same thing. I've always wondered what it was as well.

Since you brought it up, I don't drink any sort of caffeine besides tea in the morning and eat well.

Op here, sounds exactly what i'm talking about. I usually just have a glass of juice in the morning and mable a bagle and go about my day. For lunch i'll usually have a simple sandwich nothing special, I hardly use stuff like mayo or mustard. I don't know, I might try to watch what i'm eating and see how it goes. It has gotten better compared to when I first started noticing it. I'll usually shrug it off.

How much sleep do you guys get?

919 here... average amount of sleep... 6-8 hours on weekdays, 8-10 hours weekends... pretty unremarkable.

I have the same condition, it's called Cholinergic Urticaria (or heat hives), and it's brought on by a reaction to body heat. I find that I'm better off letting it react while I'm exercising, then for the rest of the day I won't be affected by it (doesn't apply if you don't live in a warm/humid climate).

Sometimes it's more noticeable than others though.
