Abstract

Various cutaneous manifestations have been reported after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine of different types. The commonest reactions were delayed large local reactions, local injection site reactions, urticaria, and morbilliform eruptions following mRNA vaccines. There are very few reports of erythema multiforme (EM) and pityriasis rosea(PR) following Covid vaccines. Erythema multiforme (EM) is one of the commonest reaction following viral infections, drugs and vaccines. Here we are reporting a case of atypical erythema multiforme like pityriasis rosea manifestation following Covishield Covid vaccine second dose.
