AB Rash  is  a  nonspecific  term  that  may  refer  to  many  acquired  skin  conditions.  As  a  visual  speciality,  dermatology  comprises  several  categories  of  skin  disease  that  are  based  primarily  on  clinical  morphology  and  pathophysiology.  Dermatologic  conditions  that  are  of  primary  interest  from  an  infectious  diseases  perspective  include  bacterial  and  mycobacterial  infections,  fungal  infections,  protozoal  infections,  viral  infections,  reactive  erythemas,  drug-  and  virus-induced  hypersensitivity  syndromes,  and  vasculitic  diseases  and  purpura  (Table  17-1).
