I have the following error:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:90: InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may cause certain SSL connections to fail.

for this code:

 23         for i in range(0, len(search)):

 25             print(search[i].comment_count)

 32                         image_file_name = 'images/'+ search[i].id+'.'+search[i].type[6:]
 33                         output_image = open(image_file_name, 'wb')
 34                         output_image.write(image_file.read())
 35                         for post in imgur_client.gallery_item_comments(search[i].id, sort='best'):

 38                         output_image.close()
 39                     except urllib2.URLError as e:
 40                         print(e)
 41                         continue
 42                     except socket.timeout as e:

 48     except ImgurClientError as e:
 49         print(e)
 50         continue
 51 
 52 print item_count


Also I see this line almost very often:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:90: InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may cause certain SSL connections to fail. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning.
  InsecurePlatformWarning

How can I fix the error? Is there any workaround for rate limit error in Imgur?
Also here's my credit info:
