24 year old patient presenting with this lesion.

He described that it began as small papules/vesicles at the base of the finger, which later disseminated to the whole finger. He also used supposedly tetracycline and another oral-systemic antibiotic as a topical antibiotic (smashing the tablet and putting it over the finger). Highly pruriginous, no systemic manifestation such as fever, adenopathies, etc. This papules/vesicles had appeared several times previously and had disappeared without treatment, but this time he treated them by himself.
