title: What is the diagnosis for this rash?
abstract: The etiology of rash in a given patient can be so varied. Good history-taking is very important to prevent unnecessary work-up. In this patient with Churg-Strauss syndrome, the rash was due to "coining," a traditional practice followed in Southeast Asian community and had no relation to her underlying disease.
