Abstract

Patients presenting with a linear, erythematous, blistering eruption may experience a sudden painful sunburn that seems to get worse rather than better with time. In warm climates, exposure to the common fig tree (Ficus carica) may be the culprit. Dermatologists should recognize fig phytophotodermatitis as a possible cause and help the patient connect their symptoms with the inciting agent as well as administer proper treatment.

摘要

患者表现为线性、红斑、水疱样疹，可能会突然出现严重的晒伤样疼痛，且随着时间推移，症状似乎会逐渐加重而非缓解。在温暖的气候中，常见的无花果（Ficus carica）可能是致病因素。皮肤科医生应认识到无花果植物日光性皮炎是一种可能的病因，并帮助患者将症状与诱发因素联系起来，同时给予适当的治疗。
