Article Synopsis
- A 48-year-old woman with no major health issues developed severe phytophotodermatitis (PPD) affecting over 30% of her skin after a tropical vacation involving exposure to plant and citrus juices during a ritual.
- The condition arose because she sunbathed shortly after contact with these juices, leading to extreme pain and a lack of prior knowledge on how to avoid such triggers.
- Phytophotodermatitis is often underdiagnosed, resulting in insufficient patient education about the dangers of UV exposure from certain plant and fruit juices, contributing to a greater disease burden.
