Seborrheic dermatitis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by erythema and greasy scales [1]. The condition typically affects areas rich in sebaceous glands such as the scalp, eyebrows, glabella, nasolabial folds, postauricular area, and intertriginous areas [2, 3]. In general, scaling tends to predominate on the scalp whereas erythema tends to predominate in the flexural...

Orf is a mucocutaneous disease that occurs when non-intact skin comes into contact with contaminated sheep saliva. The lesions may complicate to lymphangitis or secondary bacterial infection, but systemic complications such as erythema multiforme, maculopapular rash, and generalized lymphadenopathy are rare. In this paper, we present two cases of erythema multiforme following Orf disease.

Psoriasis is an immune-mediated disease that affects the skin. Scaling typically appears as white or creamy colored scales on regions of red and inflamed skin (erythema) but can also appear in isolation without the accompanying erythema. Psoriasis Area and Severity Index is the most widely used tool for the measurement of severity of psoriasis .These scores are estimated by inspecting the psori...

Palmar erythema is a very unusual manifestation of sarcoidosis. We report on a patient whose presenting features of sarcoidosis were palmar erythema and a hoarse voice. The diagnosis was confirmed by palmar skin biopsy and the patient responded well to treatment with prednisolone.

Erythema palmare hereditarium is a very rare, benign alteration of the skin which can be found mostly on the palms and soles. The anomaly is characterized by a distinctive, extensive, sharply demarcated redness. This report presents a patient with erythema palmare hereditarium.

Five patients presenting with erythema nodosum to an accident and emergency department are described. Initially they were misdiagnosed as cellulitis, infected insect bites, and minor trauma. Suspicious skin lesions or joint manifestations occurring either alone or especially if in combination should alert the wary clinician to the possibility of erythema nodosum and follow up in a few days may ...

Erythema nodosum and pyoderma gangrenosum are common skin manifestations in inflammatory bowel diseases. Curiously, these two cutaneous features have seldom been reported to occur simultaneously. We present three patients affected with inflammatory bowel disease with concomitant erythema nodosum and pyoderma gangrenosum.

The skin changes which occur in sarcoidosis are erythema nodosum and specific granulomata. The incidence of erythema nodosum and its frequency in England and Scandinavia is contrasted with its comparative rarity among Negro patients in the United States. The various types of granulomata are described and classified. In contrast with erytbema nodosum, granulomata are more common in Negro than in...
