Eruptive lingual papillitis.

FIG. 1 Crusted lesions with bullae the arrow showing level of pus (Hypopyon sign). A 5-year-old girl presented to us with complaints of exudative painful lesions on the face and upper back for 6 days. The lesions started as multiple fluid filled lesions on the face which turned turbid, ruptured, spread and involved the back. On examination, multiple pustules with level of pus (positive hypopyon sign) were seen in few lesions; erosions and honey coloured crusts were noted on the upper back (Fig. 1) and face. Culture of pus showed the growth of Styphylococcus aureus. She was treated with a 7 day course of antibiotics following which lesions cleared.
