Dermatophagia is a psychological condition similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder. If you feel that your finger biting is uncontrollable no matter what, you may have this treatable condition. The symptoms of dermatophagia are as follows: Bleeding skin. When you have dermatophagia, you bite the skin around your nails so much that it causes bleeding. Skin discoloration is common. Hangnails and other nail damage may occur. The fingertips may be calloused from excessive biting. If you have dermatophagia, it's important to get outside help to deal with the condition. Like obsessive compulsive disorder, it's very difficult to cure this on your own. Make an appointment with a therapist who knows what the disorder is and has experience treating your condition. A therapist will be able to help you figure out if your condition is caused by anxiety, and treat the underlying problem. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a form of therapy that focuses on the relationship between thoughts and behavior. This has been found to be very helpful in treating anxiety disorders.
