description A 49‐year‐old housewife with a long‐standing migraine presented with "spells" of intensely itchy, well‐circumscribed, erythematous patches over the flexor aspect of her left wrist and palm repeatedly for the last 15 years. Detailed history revealed her oral loxoprofen use for migraine headaches preceding rash development.
