The nodules are warm and erythematous. A general rule is 1 mg per kg body weight per day. Oral prednisone at a dosage of 60 mg every morning is typical. Ertiema prototype of septal panniculitis, characterized by vascular changes, septal inflammation, hemorrhage and variable acute and chronic panniculitis Both septal and lobular panniculitis Marked septal fibrosis, infiltrated by lymphocytes, neutrophils, histiocytes and granulomas with giant cells Septal infiltrate spills over to affect the fat lobules Dermis shows perivascular and periadnexal chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate Early, the septal inflammation is acute and characterized by neutrophils, soon replaced by lymphocytes and histiocytes Variable eosinophils, variable vasculitis Miescher radial granuloma: Symptoms can be treated with bedrest, leg elevation, compressive bandages, wet dressings, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents NSAIDs.
All patients with erythema nodosum should be stratified by risk for tuberculosis exposure.
