Abstract:
Jellyfish dermatitis was characterized by purpuric papules or tiny vesicles arranged linearly with a color ranging from pink to red to brown. A 24-year-old woman presented with multiple whiplash-like erythematous lesions of 5-hours duration on both legs after contact with a jellyfish at a Korean seashore.
