Dermatophobia (Fear of Skin Lesions)
My fear isn’t necessarily of skin lesions, but of any skin issue whatsoever. Skin problems are the worst because it’s so difficult to determine their cause. Even if you go to the doctor, you may walk away without an answer. If I ever see anything on my skin that looks abnormal, or if I start itching in a spot more than usual, I obsess over it until it goes away. Films like Cabin Fever get under my skin for this specific reason.
