Abstract
This chapter attempts to provide a comprehensive list of most common and some rare skin diseases affecting the face, nose, eyelids, and ears, excluding the oral mucosa and tongue dealt with in Chapter 10. Illustrative clinical images are used throughout. It lists causes of ‘red facial rashes’ and ‘recognizing rashes and tumours by facial distribution’, although fuller descriptions of many diseases are found in other chapters. Particular emphasis is given to recognizing diseases with a particular predilection for certain sites such as the butterfly distribution of photosensitivity seen in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or the periorbital rash of neonatal LE. Attention is drawn to those skin changes (rashes or tumours) that might indicate an underlying developmental problem for example segmental port-wine stains associated with the Sturge–Weber syndrome or the perinasal and chin angiofibromas of tuberose sclerosis complex. There is also a helpful box on causes of eyelid swelling.
