Hi, I am a pharmacy student and I see a patient in the hospital with a raised nodules all over the body except the chest and face. The MD suspected the rash is due to her high TG level. TG lab is on the way so I don t have the TG number yet. The reason for their suspect is when they try to open 1 nodule and inside the nodule is fat. Please tell me what do you think and type of the rash.
HIGH TG LEVELS CAN CAUSE RAISED NODULES COMMONLY CALLED AS CHERRY ANGORAS. AS SUCH THEY ARE NOT HARMFUL CAN BE REMOVED BY ELECTRODISSECTION
