GP’s: Anyone know what this is? Picture attached

I feel my skin getting itchy and then when I itch it, even very lightly, this happens.

It’s not an allergy

Hives (urticaria)? Try antihistamine (disclaimer am not a GP)

Dermatographia?

Dermatographia?

dermographia. . mast cell issues

Crossed post as I had to look up how to spell it.

Dermatographic urticaria. Have a look at this:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatographic_urticaria
(Sorry, have no idea how to make a clicking link.)
I have it in a mild form.

That looks very much like a wheal and flare reaction, so it's a skin reaction to something. I'm not a doctor, but a microbiologist and did modules on diseases and disorders as part of my training.

Oh, by some miracle, I did!
Hope it's helpful.

I've had it years. I take a daily antihistamine. Apart from that , nothing really works. Bizarrely, being on holiday abroad stops it. If I forget to take my piriton I get insane twice daily attacks. With the daily antihistamine I come up in mild hives but that's it. I get bored of people saying ' ohh have you scratched yourself?!'

Thank you all so much!! It’s drives me crazy!

I started getting it after I was diagnosed with birth trauma/PTSD. One area starts itching then everything starts! I will try some medication!

Thank you again!!
