Determine level of management needed to care for patient


Problem: A 20-year-old female presents to the Urgent Care clinic after experiencing a temperature of 101.2F and a new onset of a rash, pictured below. She denies any recent sick contacts or travel. Her past medical history includes seasonal allergies and bipolar affective disorder. She takes cetirizine (Zyrtec) as needed and quetiapine (Seroquel) but adds that her mental health provider just added another medication to address her depressive symptoms but cannot recall the name. Based on the case information and your general knowledge of dermatological conditions that can occur in psychiatry, provide a summary you would want to provide on discharge (i.e., patient education). What is your initial diagnosis? What is the most likely etiology of the patient's presentation? What should be the first intervention to treat this condition? What labs would you recommend obtaining to determine the level of management needed to care for this patient?
