Blister beetle dermatitis.

Abstract

Blister beetle dermatitis or paederus dermatitis is an irritant contact dermatitis due to accidental crush of insects belonging to paederus family on the skin. The characteristic features of blister beetle dermatitis are linear erythematous itchy vesicles over the exposed parts of body and kissing lesions. This condition is commonly seen during or after rainy season. The treatment is removal of irritant by gentle washing and topical steroids. It is often misdiagnosed and causes significant morbidity among the rural population.
