Conclusion
In conclusion, our case highlights the importance of considering aspirin hypersensitivity as a potential cause of cutaneous symptoms in patients with underlying medical conditions particularly stroke. Although aspirin is generally well-tolerated, it can cause adverse reactions such as urticaria. Clinicians should be aware of this possibility and appropriately diagnose, manage, and counsel patients to prevent future adverse reactions. The treatment for aspirin-induced urticaria involves discontinuing aspirin and prescribing alternative medications such as clopidogrel, along with countermedications like corticosteroids, antihistamines and immunomodulators in severe cases.
