OCD. Dermatophagia (from Ancient Greek δέρμα — lit.skin and φαγείαlit.eating) or dermatodaxia (from δήξις, lit.biting) [3] is a compulsion disorder of gnawing or biting one's own skin, most commonly at the fingers. This action can either be conscious or unconscious [4] and it is considered to be a type of pica.
Excoriation disorder, more commonly known as dermatillomania, is a mental disorder on the obsessive–compulsive spectrum that is characterized by the repeated urge or impulse to pick at one's own skin, to the extent that either psychological or physical damage is caused.
Dermatophagia is specifically biting. Both involve damage up to the point where you actually hurt yourself and bleed, but the compulsion doesn't go away - and the scars from both look different, in my experience. Biting scars tend to look white around the edges because of the moisture in your mouth, whereas picking scars can look callused and raw.
