“Young healthy female with swelling and erythema of mid face with new onset acneiform popular pustular eruption bilateral cheeks. Using VisualDx quickly searched for clinical findings with pt demographics and discovered rosacea fulminans as identified in the ddx. Pt was worked up and treated using recommended therapy and improved as expected.”
