Cholinergic urticaria is a kind of rash that people often say. When you are hot, nervous, eating hot food or drink, or after exercise, your body temperature rises slightly. The heated blood flow stimulates the brain's thermoregulatory center, excites cholinergic nerves and releases acetylcholine. It is precisely because people are allergic to acetylcholine that we call the symptoms caused by allergies cholinergic urticaria.
