(L66.4) Folliculitis ulerythematosa reticulata

Folliculitis ulerythematosa reticulata is a rare skin disorder caused by an inflammatory reaction of the hair follicles due to an abnormal immune response. the disorder is characterized by red-brown papules and pustules that occur on the trunk, arms, and legs. these lesions are often itchy and can cause pain and discomfort.

Folliculitis ulerythematosa reticulata is an inflammatory skin condition caused by an abnormal reaction of the immune system to a variety of environmental triggers, such as certain bacteria, fungi, or even certain medications. this reaction leads to an accumulation of white blood cells in the hair follicles, resulting in inflammation, redness, and swelling in the affected area. in some cases, the inflammation can progress to the point where the follicles become blocked, leading to further infection and scarring.
