Abstract
PRESENTATION OF CASE A 38-year-old male, working as a supermarket manager, developed multiple painful nodules on the face and arms associated with generalised weakness of 2 months duration. His medical history was otherwise uneventful. There was no previous history of any trauma or medication. He was investigated in a nearby hospital and was treated as cutaneous vasculitis with systemic corticosteroids. But there was no improvement in the symptoms.
