Additional Info
• In about half of all urticaria cases the cause will never be identified, but consider medications, foods, stress, URI, sweat, sun, cold. • Erythema multiforme is commonly caused by infections such as mycoplasma and HSV1. • Steven’s Johnson and Toxic epidermal necrolysis are a spectrum of disease. Transfer to a burn unit should be considered. • Dyshidrotic eczema presents with small vesicular lesions usually on hands and feet and should be treated with topical steroids. • Pemphigus vulgaris is a blistering disease that can be fatal if aggressive treatment with high-dose steroids is not initiated. • The rash associated with Lyme disease, erythema migrans, expands slowly over days and can spread to 30 cm over the first 30 days • Pityriasis rosea begins with an isolated herald patch (ovoid raised lesion) followed by secondary eruption (multiple smaller exanthems along Langer lines in a symmetric Christmas tree appearance). 80% symptoms spontaneously resolve within 2 months.
