Skin writing disease — sometimes also called idiopathic dermographism, chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU), or dermatographic urticaria- can have a plethora of causes. Doctors mark it idiopathic once they are unable to find a cause… and that was exactly my case. The end diagnosis of my immunologist was that it is “genetic” and incurable. Luckily I did not give up and found a cure.
