The worst non-contagious, non-fatal skin disease a human being can acquire. Basically it is an allergic reaction. Most of the time it is unknown what causes the hives to appear on the human body. Some say it is stress related, otherwise determining the source is nearly impossible. Hives are red, splotchy spots that appear on your body and they itch like a bitch. The worst case is that they can appear everywhere, I mean everywhere on the body. The worst place to get them is on the palms of your hands as it is very annoying, itchy and painful. After you think they are gone, the hives come back within months. Benadryl usually helps keep them at bay. What makes them worse is spicy food, shrooms, and sitting in hot tubs

A skin condition. Basically breaking out in hives. I guarantee no one looking at this website has heard this word before, so I'm happy to be the first.

Urticaria is a side effect of taking the drug, Adderall. You take adderall when you have ADHD, and one of my friends just so happens to ADHD.
Well, you just popped four Adderall, so there's an amazing chance you'll come down with some Urticaria.

An allergic reaction that arises upon contact with logic of any kind. This illness is congenital and sometimes passes directly from mother or father to the offspring. To date, it is incurable.

Some well-known sufferers of this illness include Donald Trump, Justin Bieber, the entire Republican Party, and the majority of YouTube commenters.
I tried to explain the concept of evolution to my next door neighbor and he replied with an irrelevant Bible quote. I think he may suffer from a form of pensive urticaria.

A skin condition in which a person's skin rises, after a given time, where it is scratched. It generally does not hurt and the mark can last for hours. Very few people have it.

It is not contagious or life-threatening, though it is kind of weird/cool.

It is called "artificial" because it resembles to an extent the symptoms of urticaria.
Because of my artificial urticaria, I can write my grocery list on my arm!

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.'
"Hey Mark! Why do you have scratches on your arm?"
"Well, I scratched my itchy arm like 5 minutes ago and it's swollen. It is called dermatography urticaria. But don't worry. It'll be gone."
