Non-healing skin sore that is deep

Cellulitis Classically B-hemolytic strep, hard to tell what is is though, but studies have shown its save to assume its BHS and give B-lactams!

Not raised, patchy, has indistinct borders, can be patchy, fever/chills common

-HSV-1/HSV-2 -HSV-1 is more commonly oral and latent in the trigeminal nerve, is it is genital it is indistinguishable from HSV-2, transmits more easily to newborn but causes less severe effects (eye, skin infections) -HSV-2 is is latent in the sacral ganglia and often genital and more often leads to recurrence and when transmitted congenitally can lead to more severe effects (encephalitis/neurodevelopmental) -can cause eye infection (ketatits/blephratitis) or finger (whitlow) or trunk (gladiatorum) -lesions can be absent!

Painful or burning erythema, papillose, multiple vesicular or ulcerative lesions on the mouth/pharynx or genitals

Seeping with pus

fifth disease caused by parvovirus which can lead to: aplastic crisis, arthritis, intrauterine infection (hydrops)

Slapped check rash

bacillary angiomatosis caused by bartonella in IC -small G- rod nutritionally fastidious -cat scratch disease -->enlarged lymph nodes, azithromycin -can have visceral involvement -Lesions : Red color -biopsy shows neutrophilic inflammation

Solitary or multiple red, purple, flesh-colored, or colorless papules (hemangiomalike lesions) varying in size from 1 mm to several centimeters

R. Africae causing african tick bite fever -only 50% of pts develop this usually 1 week after bite

Southern africa travel or hunting, fever headache myalgia and rash which can be vesicular with several inoculation eschars often on legs

S. Aureus infection

Usually an area with hair, can have black eschar, see G + cocci on Gram stain

Spider bite

White area surrounding lesion that can have a black center

Erysipelas -young children and elderly often effected, predisposed by lymphedema and venous stasis -Beta-hemolytic Strep(GAS) -Tx: Pen

painful fiery red, well demarcated and raised, indurate, usually on face/lower extremity and can have fever and chills
