Urticaria is one of the more common skin conditions seen by physicians. Physical agents are an important cause of urticaria, with pressure or shearing forces being the most common. Dermographism is due to a combination of pressure and shearing forces and is present in a large number of healthy individuals. The purpose of this article is to provide a review of dermographism and its clinical variants. Dermographism is the most common type of inducible/physical urticaria, occurring in approximately 2% to 5% of the population. Downward pressure on the skin produces linear erythematous wheals in the dermis in the shape of the external force applied, earning the name dermographism, which literally means "writing on the skin." A small subset of people with dermographism becomes symptomatic with pruritus, stinging, prickling sensations that can be bothersome for the patient.
