Pain management of pemphigus vulgaris
Abstract
Pemphigus is a rare autoimmune bullous disease which affects the mucous membranes and skin. Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is the most prevalent type of pemphigus. PV presents with extremely painful, non-healing oral erosions. However, there are only a handful of reports addressing the pain management of PV. We would like to present a case of a painful PV, which was successfully managed.
