Erythromelalgia is a rare clinical syndrome involving erythema, warmth, and burning pain in one or more of the extremities. Primary erythromelalgia is idiopathic and can begin during childhood or adulthood. In the pediatric population, auricular erythromelalgia is rare, and its etiology is not well understood. We present a case of a four-year-old boy who presented with recurrent episodes of red, painful pinnae. We also discuss previous literature on red ear syndrome and erythromelalgia.
红斑性肢痛症是一种罕见的临床综合征，累及一个或多个肢体的红斑、发热和灼痛。原发性红斑性肢痛症是特发性的，可在儿童期或成年期发病。在儿科人群中，耳部红斑性肢痛症罕见，其病因尚不清楚。我们报告一例4岁男孩反复出现红色、疼痛性耳廓的病例。我们还讨论了以往关于红耳综合征和红斑性肢痛症的文献。
