L30.2 (ILDS L30.205)

Id reactions (also known as "Disseminated eczema," and "Generalized eczema") present with a variety of infectious disorders, often occurring in response to an inflammatory tinea of the feet, resulting in an eczematous dermatitis.

The inflammation is in the absence of a locally visible cause.

Treatment

Id reactions are frequently unresponsive to corticosteroid therapy, but clear when the focus of infection or infestation is treated.
