Case Report and Brief Review: A Case of Erythema Ab Igne Due to a Space Heater
A 35-year-old male presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with a rash of his left lateral lower leg of a two months duration. The patient had been using an electric space heater and the affected area was the closest part of his body to the heater. A diagnosis of erythema ab igne was made. Here we discuss erythema ab igne in reference to the medical history of the diagnosis, pathophysiology, modern causative heat sources such as laptop computers and treatment.
