Study Notes
Skin Conditions and Treatments
- Sudden waxy brown papules on the trunk in a 65-year-old female are most associated with sebaceous gland carcinoma.
- Brown macular rash on the cubital fossa in a female patient is best treated with topical steroids.
- Erythema, edema, induration of the whole face, and stiffness of both lower limbs, along with periungual erythema in a patient, is best treated with systemic steroids.
Dermatological Conditions
- Linear morphea in a 10-year-old child is best treated with steroids and physiotherapy.
- Eruptive skin-colored papules with hardness on the face and upper back are best treated with isotretinoin.
- Photosensitivity in connective tissue disease is best treated with hydroxychloroquine.
Autoimmune Disorders
- Sarcoidosis with granuloma and few lymphocytes is best treated with biologic medications.
- Dermatomyositis controlled on prednisolone and methotrexate (MTX) intake, with myopathy after one week, requires invasive electromyography as the next step.
