Erythrasma T2 The Color Atlas of Family Medicine, 2e YR 2013 FD 2013 PB The McGraw-Hill Companies PP New York, NY SN 978-0-07-176964-8 LK accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57677451 RD 2024/03/29 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.
