I know my allergy is genetic, my sister and I both have it, it came from my mothers side, but I have also found some people got it after having an infection or sickness.

It can be genetic, but it's not genetic not all the time. There isn't really a reason that you get it that I know of if you didn't get it genetically

I do believe it is genetic. It is an abnormal Immune Response.

Genetics factors for some people with Cold Urticaria. For others it is really unknown but some can link back to a virus or insect bite or other even that seems to trigger the condition. There isn't enough research out there to understand. In my case I really can't idenitfy any one thing, but suspect genetics may play a part.

Genetics and/or infection is the most probable causes. It's unknown why some people get CU after an infection.
There is a known gene mutation that result in CU (The gene is: phospholipase C-gamma2 (PLCG2))
