Lichtenberg Flowers can be seen in Lightning Strikes
Superficial several inches long thin irregular torturous dendritic marks on the skin. These marks have resemblance to the branches of a tree
They indicate the path taken by the discharge and tend to follow skin creases and the long axis of the body.
Causes: The exact mechanism has not been determined
1. Static electricity discharges along superficial vasculature
2. Hemoglobin staining the tissues in the pattern of a tree due to breakdown of RBCs within the capillaries of the skin.
3. Electron showers eliciting an inflammatory response in the skin
