refer to changes in skin and mucous membranes

Mucocutaneous effects refer to changes or reactions that occur in the mucous membranes (such as those lining the mouth, nose, and eyes) and the skin. These effects can include symptoms like rashes, ulcers, or inflammation and are often seen as side effects of medications, infections, or autoimmune conditions. For example, chemotherapy can cause mucocutaneous effects like mouth sores and skin rashes.
