- Abstract
Jailhouse self-induced lesions by misuse of salbutamol inhaler Deliberate misuse of salbutamol inhaler in order to self-inflict skin injuries has been reported in the literature mostly among kids and teenagers, usually because of psychological distress or just for fun.[[1]] We report a case in an adult inmate in order to have a "pseudo-tattooed" letter on his skin. The patient gave up misusing salbutamol inhaler, and the lesions slowly disappeared without any sequela 2 months later.
