"Dermatographic urticaria (also known as dermographism, dermatographism or "skin writing") is a skin disorder and is one of the most common types of urticaria, in which the skin becomes raised and inflamed when stroked or rubbed with a dull object."(see Wikipedia) NON contagious!!

I am currently on treatment and things are much better for me now.

You should ask your doctor about some medications like, Celestone. This medication is a corticosteroid. It reduces swelling. It is used for many conditions, among them: allergic reactions, skin diseases, etc.

Hydroxyzine reduces activity in the central nervous system. It also acts as an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing and runny nose, or hives on the skin.
