    Glossary Pyoderma Gangrenosum

    rare skin condition causing painful, rapidly progressing ulcers

    Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG) is a rare, inflammatory skin condition characterized by painful ulcers, typically starting as small pustules or nodules that rapidly progress to larger, necrotic lesions. It is often associated with systemic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and hematologic disorders, and its exact cause is unknown, though it is believed to involve immune system dysfunction. Treatment usually involves immunosuppressive medications to control inflammation and promote healing.
