Abstract:
Erythema multiforme (EM) is a rare and potentially serious skin condition that can present as a myriad of mucocutaneous lesions. EM can be commonly confused with other cutaneous etiologies, leading to misdiagnosis and delay in proper treatment. This paper describes a case of recurrent erythema multiforme following COVID-19 infection in a 34-year-old male with no prior medical history. The patient had an extensive rash of the oral and genital mucosal areas, diffuse cutaneous involvement, and an extended length of recovery. This unexpected association of EM and COVID-19 provides additional insight into the limited research available regarding the correlation between these two pathologies.
