Pins and needles during exercise?

I know you said you eat clean, but does your husband drink coffee, caffeinated sodas or take supplements with caffeine? The reason I ask is because the exact thing used to happen to me while running or exercising hard. I would sweat, then break out in hives all over my body and they itched like crazy!!! Just as you thought, I also thought it was because of sweat toxins making contact with my skin.
However, no matter how clean I ate and how many cleanses I did it still happened. So then I decided no more caffeine. Which made me very sad because I loved drinking Diet Coke. But I stopped and have never had that problem again.
Just a thought, as different things work for different people because all our bodies are different. So if he does have caffeine he should give it a try to see if that helps.

I have the same problem for a while now though somehow it doesn't happened in summer! My local dermatologist describs these pills -in the pic down- for a month and surprisingly it worked! YAY, not for too long tho it actually screwed my immune system really badly, I got really sick from influenza. Also the antihistamines made palpitation especially in bed time... I guess this condition has something to do with dry skin and weird immune system respond to the sweat!! Any way am trying to embrace for what it worth

We’ve seen a demonologist, he’s going to get allergy tested soon they think that is a solution. Hot showers trigger the pins and needles and he is forced to take Luke warm showers to avoid the pain.. He takes clariten Frequently for allergies and has not seen improvement. He keeps working out because once he breaks a sweat the pain stops. It’s troublesome because with the VA it takes months to get any type of appointment, only to leave with them having no answers.

Have you received any sort of diagnosis or figured out any medication that helps? Reading your description, I felt like you were writing it about me and not your spouse. Thanks!

Are your triggers for pain the same as described by the post you read and responded to?

Did you ever find out what your husband's problem was? I have very similar symptoms and am trying to do some research before I go to my doctor's appointment.

@theturtler My doctor recently told me it was a form of Urticaria. I’d start there. Zyrtec has really helped keep my symptoms at bay.
