| • | subcorneal pustular dermatosis |
(a useful clinico-pathologic ddx but clinically impetigo/SSSS doesn't usually present with pustules)
|
| • | folliculitis (vs. pityrosporum folliculitis) |
| • | subcorneal pustular dermatosis |
|
| • | FACE - pseudofolliculitis barbae, sycosis barbae/ acne, rosacea, perioral dermatitis |
| • | SCALP - folliculitis decalvans, dissecting cellulitis |
|
| • | pseudofolliculits barbae |

Other Pustules:
| • | Vesiculopustular Eruption of Ulcerative Colitis = acute onset of fever, vesicles, and pustules associated with a flare in bowel disease |
| • | Bowel Bypass Syndrome = circulating immune complexes associated with baterial overgrowth of a blind loop |
| • | fire ants (solenopsis) = the only insect bites that are characteristically pustular |
| • | Disseminated gonorrhea - sparsely distributed |
| • | Acrodermatitis Enteropathica = peri-orificial pustules; diarrhea, diffuse alopecia, dermatitis |
| • | eosinophilic pustules: Incontinentia Pigmenti, eosinophilic pustular folliculitis |
The clinical group "pustules" overlaps with the histologic group "neutrophilic dermatoses" which overlaps with the pathogenesis group "immune complex diseases" and all of these are "sterile pustules".
| • | vesicopustular eruption of ulcerative colitis |
