Résumé
The management of erythromelalgia is challenging and requires multidisciplinary effort. Patient education is crucial as unsafe self-administered cooling techniques can lead to significant morbidity, including acral necrosis, infection, and amputation. The goal of management is pain control, reduction of flare frequency, and prevention of complications. This text is focused on the management of erythromelalgia and several other incompletely understood and underrecognized neurovascular disorders such as red scrotum syndrome, red ear syndrome, facial flushing, and complex regional pain syndrome. Differential diagnoses.
