Pediatric-isolated auricular erythromelalgia: a case report.

Grandy K, Corsten G, Hong P
Case reports in pediatrics

Erythromelalgia is a rare disorder that typically affects the skin of the feet, hands, or both, that is characterized by red skin, warmth, and a burning quality of pain. It usually affects both sides of the body, but may manifest unilaterally. Cooling of the affected areas usually results in symptom relief. We report a case of a young boy with erythromelalgia of the ears.
