AB  - Cold  panniculitis  represents  acute  cold  injury  resulting  in  inflammation  of  the  subcutaneous  fat.  It  manifests  as  erythematous,  indurated  nodules,  and  plaques  on  exposed  skin,  especially  the  perioral  areas  and  cheeks.  Lesions  appear  24  to  72  hours  after  exposure  to  cold  and  gradually  soften  and  return  to  normal  over  1  to  2  weeks  usually  without  permanent  sequelae.  This  phenomenon  is  caused  by  subcutaneous  fat  solidification  and  necrosis  following  exposure  to  cold  temperatures.  It  is  much  more  common  in  infants.  The  differential  diagnosis  includes  facial  cellulitis,  frostbite,  trauma,  pressure  erythema,  giant  urticaria,  and  contact  dermatitis.
