A member asked:

I have a vasculitis rash on legs due to a cold i had, it's been two weeks when will it go away?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Consider treating it: Leucocytoclastic vascultis can last long after the viral infection has resolved. The diagnosis is usually confirmed by skin biopsy and it often improves quickly with prednisone.
