Erythema nodosum (EN) is a skin lesion that presents due to an inflammation of the subcutaneous fat, which is manifested clinically as a sudden onset of tender erythematous lesions. These lesions are typically localized to the pretibial surface. The cause of EN is mainly idiopathic, other causes are drugs, infections, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory bowel disease. As vaccines are rarely known to cause EN, we are reporting a case of a 19-year-old female with a delayed recurrent reaction following the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
结节性红斑是一种因皮下脂肪炎症而出现的皮肤病变,临床上表现为突然出现的压痛性红斑病变。这些病变通常局限于胫前表面。结节性红斑的病因主要是特发性的,其他病因包括药物、感染、自身免疫性疾病和炎症性肠病。由于疫苗很少被认为会导致结节性红斑,我们报告一例19岁女性在接种第二剂新冠疫苗后出现延迟性复发反应的病例。
