Patient consulted a physician (non-dermatologist) and was prescribed topical preparation containing potent topical corticosteroids (clobetasol) in combination with clotrimazole. Initially there was a quick response in itching which prompted him to apply the product continuously for few weeks. After application of topical steroids morphology of lesion changed from annular to concentric plaques. We performed potassium hydroxide mount which showed hyphae and on culture Trichophyton rubrum was grown.

The lesions are restricted to one anatomical site with facial predilection in most of the reported cases. We herein, report a case of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus due to rarity of presentation and later age of onset.

The facial veins receive tributaries from the side of the nose and from the inferior palpebral, superior, and inferior labial veins, the buccinators, parotid and masseteric veins, as well as other tributaries which join it below the mandible. The facial veins communicate to the cavernous veins via the superior and inferior ophthalmic veins which drain either separately or by a common trunk to the cavernous sinus.[1] Coughing leads to an increase in cerebral venous pressure which is transmitted via cavernous sinus to orbital and facial venous system resulting in bruising.[4] Al-Sardar reported perioral involvement caused by vomiting which can be explained by the drainage of superior and inferior labial veins into facial venous system, which further communicates to cavernous system by ophthalmic veins.[1] Hence, the transmission of increased cerebral venous pressure during Valsalva maneuver to facial venous system may also lead to perioral ecchymosis but our patient had no other site involvement on face due to ecchymosis except periorbital area.

The lesions are often associated with pain or tenderness, localized hyperhidrosis, and hypertrichosis.[2,3]
