- Authors

- Abstract
Patient support groups5 are calling for earlier recognition, advocacy and research into TSWS. However, the intense erythema and burning of TSWS does appear distinct from these entities, specific to TSWS and more prolonged than can be explained by the rebound vasodilation that occurs after discontinuing TCSs. Since their introduction in the 1950s, topical corticosteroids (TCSs) have improved the lives of many dermatology patients.
