Abstract

As the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, skin manifestations have been reported as part of this disease’s multisystem manifestations. While a rash similar to chilblains in acral distribution has been the most commonly reported complication, we noted a pattern of more severe lower extremity skin complications, specifically large bullae, in a series of COVID-19 patients.
