Abstract
Introduction: Skin scaling and widespread erythema is the hallmarks of erythroderma, a dermatological reaction that might have several underlying causes. Management will be guided by a better knowledge of the traits and causes of this illness. Investigating the origin and symptoms of erythroderma was the goal of this study.
Materials and Methods: Between February 2017 and January 2018, participants were inpatients and outpatients at the dermatological clinic and ward of the Department of Dermatology at Madha Medical College, Mangadu, Thandalam, Tamil Nadu. The analysis included all patients, regardless of age or gender, who visited the dermatology clinic within the designated time period and reported a new case of erythroderma.
Results: The study conducted by Pal and colleagues found lymphadenopathy in 55.50 percent of patients. With the exception of one case of Hodgkin's lymphoma, the only kind of lymphadenopathy observed in this group was dermatopathic lymphadenopathy. Forty percent of patients exhibited pitting pedal edoema. The frequency of pedal edoema can be anything from 14.6% to 78.67%. Erosion and congestion of the oral mucosa were observed in 9.23% of individuals.
Conclusion: Although erythroderma is painful, the research found that it did not constitute a life-threatening emergency. Finding and correcting the problem's origin is the most challenging part.
