  • Snapshot
    • A 35-year-old man presents to the dermatology clinic for a rash. He reports that these spots have been on his skin for about 2 months now since he returned from a work-stay program in South America. There he interacted with animals and occasionally tried exotic foods, such as the armadillo. On physical exam, there are multiple well-circumscribed erythematous plaques with raised borders and central hypopigmentation. There is loss of sensation over the plaques. He is started on a long course of antibiotics.
