Skin lesions occur in illustrators, (draughtsman) draftsman (fig. 1-4). Skin lesions are primarily on two fingers (finger I – thumb and finger II – pointing) of different colors. Coloration generally occurs in black, and the subject is the color of pen, pencil, which is used by a person. As a result of prolonged use of the stylus (scriber) or pencil goes to chronic fingertips color of the color of the stylus. Discoloration persists chronically, but it is reversible.
