Urticaria and HIV Infection: A Case Report.

Urticaria is a common skin rash, which can be acute or chronic. It can be idiopathic or associated with various disorders and infections, but rarely human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). We report a case of an adult male presenting with a new onset of chronic urticaria. Its workup revealed newly diagnosed HIV. The frequency and severity of urticaria wheals improved significantly with HIV treatment.
