Trending Cases

  1. 22 yo male patient - CO this hypopigmented ANESTHETIC macule on the lateral aspect of his index finger. He was diagnosed as eczema and given Steroid and salicylate oint. This macule dropped but came back again in a week. What's the most likely diagnosis and management?

  2. Assumed it was a tick bite - questioned lymes...no symptoms...looked like this for about three weeks then resolved on its own...any ideas?

  3. Poison oak? - Treated with prednisone and cortisone cream for 7 days and this is the result. Any suggestions?

  4. Patient in late teens - presenting after a collapse, no chest pain, no previous cardiac history, no history of sudden death in family; are there any features in this EKG that would warrant further work-up or is this just a pediatric EKG?
