A 16-year old male was admitted to the hospital for a facial rash that progressively worsened over the course of a week and was refractory to antibiotics. He was subsequently diagnosed with herpes gladiatorum, a condition that most commonly affects the face and upper trunk. This condition is most prevalent in athletes that engage in contact sports. We hereby report a case of a patient who presented with herpes gladiatorum as well as the subsequent hospital course and treatment.
