Toggle15. Dermatographia
Dermatographia is an abnormal skin ailment in which peculiar, uncalled-for patterns of redness, eruptions, and other skin conditions arise. The name of the condition is derived from the medical field of dermatology and the examination of handwriting known as graphology. This illness is often mistaken for stigmata or maculopapular erythema, however, unlike the former, the latter is not brought on by any spiritual symbols; it is simply an extraordinary arrangement of skin irritation.
People suffering from this illness might experience rashes or blistering on their skin which can be extremely itchy or painful, and commonly appears without any known cause. Even though anyone can suffer from dermatographia, it is most frequently found in children aged 5 to 15 years old. The precise cause of dermatographia is still unknown, with some researchers believing it is an innocuous hereditary disorder, while others have connected it to inadequate nutrition or environmental components such as pesticides and allergens.
