Acrodermatitis - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Síndrome de Gianotti-Crosti; Acrodermatitis papular de la niñez; Acrodermatitis papular infantil; Síndrome papulovesicular acro-localizado; Acrodermatitis liquenoide infantil; Acrodermatitis enteropática

Tratamiento:

La acrodermatitis en sí no se trata, pero las enfermedades asociadas con esta afección, como la hepatitis B y el virus de Epstein-Barr, se deben tratar apropiadamente.

La acrodermatitis enteropática mejora cuando los niveles de zinc retornan a la normalidad.

Pronóstico:

La acrodermatitis por lo general desaparece por sí sola sin tratamiento ni complicaciones; sin embargo, las enfermedades conexas se deben vigilar cuidadosamente.

Posibles complicaciones:

Las complicaciones ocurren por las enfermedades asociadas más que como resultado de la acrodermatitis.

Cuándo contactar a un profesional médico:

Consulte con el médico si su hijo tiene signos de esta afección.
