Prurigo pigmentosa
Prurigo pigmentosa is 'n seldsame veltoestand van onbekende oorsaak, gekenmerk deur die skielike aanvang van eritematiese papules wat 'n retikuleerde hiperpigmentasie verlaat wanneer hulle genees. Die toestand word soms veroorsaak deur 'n onlangse dieetbeperking.

Prurigo pigmentosa is 'n seldsame inflammatoriese veltoestand wat die eerste keer in 1971 deur Nagashima et al beskryf is. Dit affekteer hoofsaaklik jong wyfies van Oos-Asiatiese afkoms, maar kan ook in ander voorkom. Dit verskyn as 'n simmetriese uitslag van verhoogde rooi knoppe op die nek, bors en rug. Hierdie knoppe vorm dikwels 'n netagtige patroon en kan kom en gaan, wat donkerder kolle op die vel laat. Prurigo pigmentosa kan veroorsaak word deur veranderinge in metabolisme, soos dié wat veroorsaak word deur ketogeniese diëte, wat onlangs meer gewild geword het.
Prurigo pigmentosa, also known as Nagashima disease or keto rash, is a rare inflammatory skin disease initially described by Nagashima et al in 1971. Prurigo pigmentosa typically, but not exclusively, affects young females of East Asian ethnicity, presenting as a symmetrical eruption of urticarial papules on the neck, chest, and back. The papular eruption typically coalesces into a reticulated pattern that repeatedly resolves and recurs, resulting in hyperpigmented skin of cosmetic concern. Prurigo pigmentosa can be triggered by metabolic derangements, including those secondary to ketogenic diets, which have experienced a rise in popularity in recent years.

Prurigo pigmentosa is 'n veltoestand wat skielike, jeukerige, rooi knoppe in 'n netagtige patroon veroorsaak, gevolg deur donker kolle. Onlangs is 'n paar bewyse gevind dat Prurigo pigmentosa geassosieer word met die ketogeniese dieet. Dit kan mense van verskillende ouderdomme en geslagte beïnvloed, met 'n neiging om meer algemeen by vroue te wees. In gevalle waar terugkeer na 'n gereelde dieet of die gebruik van velbehandelings nie ten volle help nie, kan dokters 'n kursus orale antibiotika soos doksisiklien of minosiklien voorskryf (100 mg twee keer per dag vir 1 tot 2 maande) .
Prurigo pigmentosa is a skin condition causing sudden, itchy, red bumps in a net-like pattern followed by dark spots. Lately, some evidences were founded that Prurigo pigmentosa is associated with the ketogenic diet. It can affect people of different ages and genders, with a tendency to be more common in females. In cases where returning to a regular diet or using skin treatments doesn't fully help, doctors may prescribe a course of oral antibiotics like doxycycline or minocycline (100 mg twice daily for 1 to 2 months).
