why is the snow causing my son to have a rash/hives?
This is the 2nd time that I have taken my son out to play in the snow & both times he has walked in the house with some sort of rash/hives.

His skin might be sensitive to the cold. I suffer from the same thing and it gets so annoying and itchy! Taking an allergy medicine like Zyrtec or Claratin helps a lot!
Extreme temperatures can cause rashes (hot or cold). You can try putting a moisturizer on his skin first to protect it. Dry cold air can zap the moisture (even if he’s in snow).
