URTICARIA MARLTIMA Meaning and Definition

1. Urticaria marltima is a rare variant of urticaria, which is a condition characterized by the sudden onset of itchy skin lesions or hives. Urticaria marltima is specifically distinguished by the presence of hives that occur as a response to direct contact with sea water or marine organisms.

   The term "urticaria" refers to the medical condition where itchy, raised, and swollen welts or hives appear on the skin. These hives typically manifest due to an allergic reaction or immune system response triggered by certain factors, such as food, medications, stress, or insect bites. Urticaria marltima, however, is a unique subtype of urticaria that specifically refers to the development of hives when an individual comes into direct contact with sea water or marine life.

   The lesions associated with urticaria marltima are characterized by their transient nature, as they tend to disappear within a few hours or days. The severity of symptoms may vary, with some individuals experiencing only mild itching and redness, while others may develop more pronounced swelling and discomfort. It is thought that the specific proteins or microorganisms present in sea water or marine organisms act as allergens, triggering an immune response and subsequent onset of hives.

   While urticaria marltima is considered a rare condition, it is important for individuals who experience hives or skin reactions after contact with sea water or marine life to seek medical evaluation. Treatment may involve the use of antihistamines to alleviate itching and inflammation, as well as the identification and avoidance of triggering factors.
