Serpiginous

Serpiginous is a term used to describe creeping or extended skin lesions, especially those that have jagged, wavy edges.

Serpiginous rashes are characterized by a gradual centrifugal spread of skin lesions. In this case, the central part of the lesion turns pale and epithelializes, while the peripheral edges remain active and continue to spread. Thus, ring-shaped or arched elements with uneven scalloped edges are formed.

Serpiginous lesions occur in various dermatoses, such as psoriasis, cutaneous tuberculosis, tertian porphyria, sarcoidosis, leprosy and others. They can also be a manifestation of tumor processes. Diagnosis of serpiginous rashes is based on the clinical picture and the results of histological examination. Differential diagnosis is carried out with other dermatoses occurring with ring-shaped elements.

Serpiginous - This term is used to describe creeping or extended skin lesions, especially those that have jagged, wavy edges.

Serpiginous lesions are characterized by a gradual centrifugal spread of skin lesions with the formation of serpentine, convoluted edges. These lesions may merge to form large areas of lesions.

The term "serpiginous" is often used to describe skin diseases such as serpiginous granuloma, lichen serpiginosis, and serpiginous sarcoporia. The causes of serpiginous lesions can be infections (bacterial, fungal, viral), autoimmune diseases, and blood supply disorders.

Diagnosis of serpiginous lesions is based on the clinical picture and the results of histological examination. Treatment depends on the cause and may include antibiotics, antifungals, immunosuppressants, and surgery. The prognosis depends on the form and extent of the process.

Serpiginous purpura is a disease characterized by patches of redness and swelling on the skin. These areas can come in different sizes and shapes, but always have jagged edges and a wavy surface. The name of the disease comes from the Latin word “serpiginosus”, which means “snake-shaped”.

Serpiginous purpura can occur anywhere on the body, but most often affects the skin of the arms, legs, face and neck. Typically, the disease begins with redness and swelling of the skin, which gradually increases in size. Blisters and blisters then appear on the skin, which may burst and leave behind ulcers.

One of the causes of serpiginous purpura is the herpes simplex virus, which can be transmitted through contact with an infected person or through objects on which it is placed. The disease can also be caused by a bacterial infection or an allergic reaction to certain substances.

Treatment for serpiginous purpura depends on the cause of its occurrence. If the disease is caused by the herpes simplex virus, then antiviral drugs can be used. In case of bacterial infection, antibiotics must be used. An allergic reaction can be eliminated by removing the allergen from the body.

Overall, serpiginous purpura is a serious condition that can lead to serious complications such as scarring of the skin or even gangrene. Therefore, when the first signs of the disease appear, you must consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Serpiginosis is a rare skin disease of unknown etiology. Isolation into an independent nosological form is due to the presence of certain signs and symptoms of skin lesions. In addition, it is an original dermatological disease characterized by multiple skin rashes of the type of serpiginating white-yellow papulokeratoblastomatous dermatitis, a multiplicity of “star-shaped” papules located in areas with pronounced vegetation of hair follicles, hyperemia, scaling, peeling and changes in the dystrophic appearance of hair.
