Rheumatology: Vasculitis is very complicated topic. Every patient is unique and broad generalizations are rarely appropriate. You should be examined by a competent specialist with experience in the management of so-called collagen vascular diseases. Typically a rheumatologist, or vascular medicine or vascular surgery.

See your doctor: Vasculitis can be very serious and needs evaluation by rheumatologist.

If: If you are not rheumatologist, at this time you need to be seen by one as vasculitis can affect other parts of your body and not just skin.
