We can pretty much do any kind of work as long as we don't work outside when it starts to get colder (autumn, winter, sometimes spring) and as long as the building we are in isn't to cold.

Most people with CU should only work inside. Food service work would be difficult. All work locations should be heated and out of the elements and exposure to cold things or places need to be avoided.

Right now I cannot work because its winter and I cannot go outside, otherwise if I lived somewhere I could travel by car all winter I would be able to work, but I wouldn't be able to work with anything cold or with air conditioned rooms, no outside work because wind is just as bad as the cold even if the wind feels warm, we just gotta watch out for things that would make us cold.

Yes they can
Anywotk that can be done in am environment that has a stable temperate climate and limits exposure to cold temperate.

Yes, they can do almost anything they like as long as they aren't exposed to environments and situations that may cause a reaction, and even then this may be dependent on the severity of their reaction.

Yes as long as they’re warm and work is understanding

Yes. May be difficult to work outside , in the water or in cold storage areas.

Working in the outdoors is not wise. It is still possible to work in the outdoors because there are precautions you can take to prevent reactions (like dressing warmly and taking an antihistamine) but outdoors work is the only real thing that would cause any concern in my opinion.

Yes and the type of job would depend on your tolerance temperature and if medication works for you.

Anything as long as its not in cold temps.

I would say it depends on the severity of their case and if they have a working treatment..... i unfortunately am currently unemployed due to my Urticaria, anything under 70 triggers my symptoms but any heat causes me to sweat which has the same effect and causes a severe reaction ...my allergist has been unable to find a treatment plan that works for me
