    TLDR A patient got a skin reaction on their hands and feet after using secukinumab for psoriasis.
    The document presented a case of a patient with psoriasis who developed palmoplantar vesicular dermatitis after starting treatment with secukinumab. The use of biological agents for psoriasis treatment allows for a long-term therapeutic strategy, but they can introduce new side effects due to a possible imbalance in immune response profiles. Adverse skin reactions related to the use of secukinumab are rare, with the most common being urticaria and infections.
