Dear Mr. Lybrate-user, you are right it seems you are suffering from what we call dermographisme are no other problems like swelling of lips or tongue or difficulty in breathing you do not have worry too much. Some people are born with this condition which is not serious. But if it is troubling too much or you have swelling of lips, tongue,throat or Breathing difficulty you should see your doctor or an allergist if available. If any further questions you can chat with me.
