Pustular psoriasis: treatment with antibiotics.

Abstract

A 17 years old boy presented clinically with typical lesions of pustular posriasis. Although his pus culture from the pocket of pus did not reveal any organism, his blood culture reports showed growth of Diplococci pneumoniae, which was sensitive to gentamycin. The patient was completely cured of the lesion after gentamycin therapy.
