Paraviral exanthems.

Paraviral exanthems. Expert Rev Anti Infect Ther. 2016 May 4; Authors: Fölster-Holst R, Zawar V, Chuh A Abstract Paraviral exanthems are skin eruptions suspected to be aetiologically related to viral infections. It is important to review for these rashes because the viruses might cause acute and long-term complications, the patients might face physical and psychosocial problems, and over-treatments might cause adverse reactions. During pregnancy, some peculiarities should be considered. Treatments include corticosteroids (local and systemic), antihistamines, antibiotics and ultraviolet light. The authors advocate that future clinical trials might incorporate patient-assessed parameters in addition to clinician-assessed parameters as outcome measures in future clinical trials.
