You have deep vertical lines on your fingertips and fingers which make strange fingerprints in forensic science class?

Well, I can speak from personal experience. Many of my fingertips have deep vertical lines in them and they experience a reduced almost numb sanitation. I was not born with them; I believe it's a result of scaring from clusters of small clear fluid filled blisters that seem to invade the sides and bottom of my fingertips. They come and go but they have left behind a shriveled look to my fingers. Especially my right thumb and index finger have been affected. It's some sort of non-contagious eczema but it may be hereditary. My father had the same problem on the soles of his feet.

Who invented DNA fingerprints?
Fingerprint evidence and DNA evidence have NOTHING to do with one another except the fact that they are both collected by a crime scene technician.

The only similarity between these two concepts is that both fingerprints and DNA are totally unique to each individual and are, therefore 100% accurate in identifying people.
