L51.0: Nonbullous erythema multiforme
This disease causes reddish to bluish skin lesions that look similar to bull’s-eye targets. The skin lesions can form blisters in the middle or have bloody crusts. They can itch or burn. The skin lesions are able to heal on their own after a while.
The condition occurs on hands and feet. But arms and legs can also be affected. Skin lesions can also occur on the neck, face, throat and moist skin in the mouth.
This condition can be triggered by things like pathogens or drugs. However, it is also possible that no cause is found.
