Weird markings on my arm
lately i have been getting pain in my arm quite bad but nothing i could deal with but once the pain had gone i was left with about 10 tiny line indentations side by side on my forearm but yesterday i had a really bad pain which was almost imbearable and i was left with alot more line and a big line going from palm to inner elbow that looked like the indentation of a zip
i am acctually really worried i will try to get a picture when it happens next as i didnt have a camera handy but i cant find anything anywhere if anybody has any ideas i would be very greatful

Blood poisoning or aliens.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Hole E shit. You have described what I've experienced twice in the past few months. Along with severe cramps on my forearms and legs. Shooting pains throughout my entire body. Random bouts of fatigue. And tightness across my chest and back.

Full amputation is required immediately!

Seriously though, you should probably go see a Doctor. It could blood poisoning I guess or severe muscle cramping or spasms maybe? I have seen muscle spasms severe enough to contort the skin.

Did you dream about aliens or weird things? Sounds like another alien abduction case.

That happens in Africa all the time, Its a rare blood diseases that causes clotting, its not that serious but can become fatal when the clots move through the heart and into the brain but that takes years to develop. I would say its status critical if I were you

OK, theres a big difference between indentations and raised lines.If they were raised ,its most likely dermographism and can be treated like an allergy.If it is ,it may go away and come back for years and years or it may go away and never come back.Have you ever had any injuries in that arm?

BTW. I've had dermographism before.I had it for a few years.In my case it seemed to be triggered by hormones as once I got my raging hormones under control it went away.I did not take any allergy medication as I believe that only keeps the body unaware of its condition and supresses it thus prolonging the disorder.

sorry i couldnt tell if the lines were raised or if the area around the lines where indented it was a sort of panic moment but the pain was horrible but the lines went after about half hour they were not discouloured same colour as my skin they look nothing like i have found so far it is definatly not dermographism it looked sort of like goosbumbs but lines im waiting for the next attack with my camera ready so far they have been 1 day apart2 day apart and over a week apart it didnt look serious at all sort of like if you lie funny and your skin is creased. i had the pain and was looking at my aarm expecting to see the lines again and they just all started appearing all over my arm

Re: Weird markings on my arm
Dermographism can have be in the shape of raised lines and the color of your skin.I know, because I had it on my arms.It can appear in tons of different shapes and sizes ,forms,and be red or the color of your skin.

The fact that it goes away after 30 minutes is a big sign that it is dermographism.Actually its an autoimmune disorder that your experiencing.

I only get that when I drink soda pop. Caffeine pull magnesium out of your body and prevents it's absorption. Magnesium is vital for healthy muscles among other things. It's funny what muscles do when they aren't healthy.....you know, like twitching and spasms and cramping and stuff like that.
