If i press and run my fingernail against my skin, my skin gets bloated.?

Is this some kind of an allergy? I have this for 7 years now. What are the possible causes and medicines?

For the first two years i had been in and out of allergynologist and dermatologist clinic. They sent me for laboratory test such as stool exam, xray, urine, blood test, cbc, etc. etc. and after taking tons of medications i just stop going back to the clinic. I think two years of experiment is too much.

Ask your doctors about dermographism.

Sounds like a Marx Brothers joke: man goes into the doctor, says, "Doctor, my elbow hurts when I go like this." (swings elbow) Doctor says, "Well, then don't go like that!"

Does anything else trigger this reaction besides your fingernails? Have you tried changing your diet? Have you tried changing your doctor? Sometimes you need a third or fourth opinion to find the real basis of the problem.

In the meantime, stop running your fingernails against your skin. You can wear mittens in bed or even while awake if it's a habit.
