Signo de Nikolski - Treatment

Se debe llamar al médico si:

Consulte con el médico si usted o su hijo presentan desprendimiento, enrojecimiento y ampollas de la piel con presencia de dolor sin una causa obvia.

Lo que se puede esperar en el consultorio médico:

Las afecciones asociadas con el signo de Nikolski son de carácter grave y la mayoría de las personas son hospitalizadas. A usted se le solicitará la historia clínica y se le practicará un examen físico. Se le pueden administrar antibióticos y líquidos a través de una vena (intravenosos).

El médico puede hacer las siguientes preguntas:

  • ¿Cuándo notó por primera vez que la piel estaba enrojecida o con ampollas?
  • ¿Qué otros síntomas se presentan al mismo tiempo?
