amycho-, amych-
(Greek: scratch, itch)
An abnormal, or uncontrollable, urge to scratch because of itchiness on the body.
A morbid nervousness of being lacerated, scratched, or clawed, especially by cats or dogs: For those who have severe allergic reactions to animal scratches, animal hair, or fleas, such an amychophobia is justified.
