  • Title: Erythema nodosum.
    Author: Reece RM.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1976 Mar; 13(3):99-102. PubMed ID: 1258722.
    Abstract:
    Erythema nodosum (EN) is now more commonly associated with streptococcal disease than with tuberculosis. Sarcoidosis is the third most frequently associated systemic disease. Oral contraceptives now lead the list of drugs associated with EN. The appearance and disappearance of crops of nodules is extremely variable. Salicylates and rest are useful. Steroids are not recommended because they may compromise defenses against an underlying disease process.
