I saw a diagnosis I’d not seen before – Sweet’s syndrome. I looked it
up.
Sweet's syndrome is a rare
skin condition. Its main symptoms include fever and painful skin lesions that
appear mostly on the arms, neck, head and trunk.
The exact cause of Sweet's
syndrome isn't known. It can be triggered by an infection, illness, cancers or
certain medications.
The most common treatment
for Sweet's syndrome is corticosteroids such as prednisone. Signs and symptoms
often disappear just a few days after treatment begins, but recurrence is
common…
One lives and learns…
