Dermatology

Dermatology, often shortened to derm, is a specialty of medicine. Doctors who have specialized in dermatology have generally done four years of college, four years of medical school, one year of a medical/surgical internship, and three years of dermatology residency. Board-certified dermatologists are the only physicians with advanced medical training to diagnose and treat skin, hair, and nail conditions. They can also perform surgical procedures like biopsies, Mohs surgery to remove cancer, and complex wound reconstruction. Dermatology is widely considered to be the most competitive and most sought-after specialty among top medical students.

Dermatography urticaria

It is a skin disease which known as 'skin writing disease'. This condition is cause by the weak cell membrane of the abundant amount of mast cell (can be recognize as white blood cell and have same function as basophil) in the skin. Mast cell contains histamines which responsible for the swelling of the skin. Only 4% of the world's population have this disease. But I prefer to call this disease as an 'allergic reaction to pressure.'
