A2 - Appachi, Elumalai PY - 2015 T2 - The Color Atlas of Pediatrics AB - A 17-year-old is brought to the office by her mom because of a rash that appeared 3 weeks ago for no apparent reason (Figures 137-1 to 137-3). She was feeling well and the rash is only occasionally pruritic. With and without mom in the room, the patient denied sexual activity. The diagnosis of pityriasis rosea was made by the clinical appearance even though there was no obvious herald patch. The collarette scale was visible and the distribution was consistent with pityriasis rosea. The patient and her mom were reassured that this would resolve spontaneously. At a subsequent visit for a college physical, the skin was found to be completely clear with no scarring.
