Cutaneous Manifestation of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Abstract

—Patients with COVID-19 most commonly present with respiratory symptoms, but multiorgan involvement can occur, including skin manifestations. Dermatologic findings may include a maculopapular eruption (morbiliform rash), urticarial, vesicular rash (varicella-like), petechiae, purpura, pseudochilblains, livedo racemosa, and distal ischemia. Most of these skin rashes are not any correlation with disease’s severity and fully recovered without any treatment. But some eruptions can be a marker of poor prognosis and should be treated intensively.
