Question: What are you lacking if you have adermatoglyphia?

Answer: You have no fingerprints. Adermatoglyphia is the absence of ridges on the skin on the pads of the fingers and toes, as well as on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. People with adermatoglyphia can’t be identified by their fingerprints. The condition has been called the “immigration delay disease” because affected individuals have difficulty entering countries that require fingerprinting for identification.
