AB  - A  12-year-old  Hispanic  girl,  accompanied  by  her  mother,  presents  with  a  1-year  history  of  a  red  irritated  rash  in  both  axillae  (Figure  119-1).  She  has  been  seen  by  multiple  physicians  and  many  antifungal  creams  had  been  tried  with  no  results.  Even  hydrocortisone  did  not  help.  She  had  stopped  wearing  deodorant  for  fear  that  she  was  allergic  to  all  deodorants.  Although  the  rash  barely  fluoresced  at  all,  the  physical  examination  and  history  were  most  consistent  with  erythrasma.  The  patient  was  given  a  prescription  for  oral  erythromycin  and  the  erythrasma  cleared  to  the  great  delight  of  the  patient  and  her  mother.
