Specialty dermatology | ICD-10 L30.2 | |
Dermatophytids are fungus-free disseminated skin lesions resulting from induced sensitization in patients with ringworm infections.
The most common dermatophytid is an inflammation in the hands resulting from a fungus infection of the feet. Dermatophytids normally disappear when the primary ringworm infection is treated.
Dermatophytids may resemble erythema nodosum.
