description Various dermatological manifestations have been observed in patients with Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) infection ranging from maculopapular rashes, urticaria, chickenpox-type lesions, chilblain-like, distal-limb ischemia, and livedo racemosa. While most of these cutaneous findings are self-resolving, they may aid in the timely diagnosis of this infection. We are reporting three patients presenting with dermatological features resembling (i) varicella zoster, (ii) herpes labialis, and (iii) Steven Johnson Syndrome (SJS) who were subsequently diagnosed with Covid-19 infection. The skin lesions disappeared after successful treatment of Covid-19.
