History:

A middle-aged woman gave history of long use of topical corticosteroid on the face for a pruritic red scaly rash for more than six months with partial improvements and exacerbations. O/E an erythematous scaly rash with more active border involved most of the face was seen. KOH examination of scales yielded dermatophytes.
