Article Synopsis
- The paper discusses a case of papulonecrotic tuberculid in a 6-month-old boy following BCG vaccination, which caused fever and skin lesions but no systemic issues.
- Histopathological analysis showed inflammation and fibrosis in the skin lesions, but tests for tuberculosis were negative, leading to a diagnosis linked to the BCG vaccine.
- The skin lesions healed on their own in two months, and while such rashes can cause anxiety in parents, they usually require no treatment unless the child is immunocompromised; increased awareness about this potential side effect is needed.
