It usually begins in the first decade of life and spontaneously remits after several months to three years of activity. Sulfapyridine or dapsone therapy usually controls the disease. Administration of corticosteroids for systemic effects should be avoided.(Am J Dis Child 133:791-794, 1979) SN - 0002-922X M3 - doi: 10.1001/archpedi.1979.02130080031004 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archpedi.1979.02130080031004 ER -
