ED01 Simulated skin disease
International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01
Simulated skin disease can present in a variety of ways such as application of glue, dyes or make-up to the skin (particularly by children or adolescent girls) and is usually though not always readily recognised for what it is. The motivation for the simulation can vary but may point to some form of psychopathology or may be purely experimentation.
