Abstract

Skin rash involving palms and soles can be a manifestation of serious underlying medical condition. Some of these conditions are acute conditions, requiring immediate recognition and treatment. Others, while not life-threatening, need recognition to avoid transmission to others. Finally, some are associated with serious inflammatory, hematologic, and oncologic conditions that need to be suspected and diagnosed in a timely manner, but are not immediately life-threatening. In this paper we have provided a review of medical conditions that are associated with rash involving palms and soles.
