You might have a disease called cold urticaria, that can result in itching, and the development of hives when the skin comes into contact with cold temperatures. Please schedule an appointment with a dermatologist for definitive diagnosis and treatment. During this time, try to keep far from harsh temperature fluctuations and make sure your skin is covered in low temperatures.
