Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a multisystem inflammatory syndrome that affects many different organs of the body. Extrapulmonary cutaneous manifestations are now being reported in greater frequency as occurring before or after onset of clinical symptoms. To the authors knowledge, there are few, if any published study that has documented the persistent cutaneous manifestations in patients who have recovered from COVID-19. In this report, we describe some of the cutaneous manifestations in patients known as COVID-19 “long haulers”.
