Pityriasis rosea first symptom?

Pityriasis rosea occurs in people aged between 10 and 35. Other age groups are rare, and there is no significant difference between male and female cases. General skin rash lasts for several weeks to several months, usually subsides without leaving traces. Pityriasis rosea is usually a single large pink plaque with oval shape and slight desquamation on the edge, which often occurs in the chest, abdomen or back.

There is a special nickname for the pink plaque with large singleness, which is called scouting plaque. In the following week or two, more and more spots or plaques appeared on the body and limbs, which may spread to the neck, but rarely invaded the face. The appearance of these patches is similar to that of the Scout patches, but the area is generally smaller. About 40-50% of the scouting spot patients will have a slight itching, and sometimes the itching will become more serious in a higher temperature environment.

In addition, some patients with scout spot will have fatigue, cold like symptoms before the appearance of rash. Pityriasis rosea usually reaches the peak of rash attack about two weeks after the appearance of Scouting spot, and then gradually subsides by itself. Generally, it can completely disappear about six to eight weeks. However, some rashes may last longer, and a few patients with Scouting spot can last for several months.
