I can't find an English term for this, although it is common on the Internet. Does it just mean "redness"?
Beim Bestreichen der Haut kein besonderes Nachröten.
Thanks in advance!

Note from asker:
| Thanks, uyuni, but that seems overly specific in this context, since the key point here seems to be the "writing" on the skin. Since the point of the doctor's sentence here is "brushing" the skin does not produce Nachröten, I don't quite see how this would fit. |
| @Alison: you really have a knack for finding these things! Don't know why I didn't. :-( |

Thanks a lot, Alison, for the additional URL and also for convincing Susan :-)

: So etwas teile ich Susans Skepsis, weil "dermographism" eher für die überschießende, urtikarielle Reaktion verwendet wird, aber "Dermographismus" (und auch "Nachröten"?) eher neutral für jegliche (physiologische und pathologische) Reaktion.

Naja klar, hier haben wir mal wieder eine Grauzone im interlingualen Raum. Aber auch im Deutschen wird "Dermografismus" mal rein klinisch-deskriptiv, ein anderes Mal zur Beschreibung einer pathologischen Reaktion, ja sogar als Krankheitsentität verwendet.

flushing (of the skin)
While this refers to a generalized redness, usually of the face, you may be able to tease something out of a search for this term.

: that's something else ( it's a specific term in medicine so be careful with it)

reddening/coloring
So whatever they're spreading, coating, smearing, applying to the skin, there is no reddening or coloring.
