Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a chronic inflammatory neutrophilic dermatosis often presenting as a solitary enlarging painful ulcer with red to violaceous undermined borders. This report delves into the role of doxycycline in the treatment of PG in a 44-year-old male COVID-19 positive patient who has concomitant active tuberculosis infection and end-stage kidney disease, for which both first-line treatments (systemic corticosteroid and cyclosporine) are contraindicated. After three months on doxycycline and topical corticosteroids, there was resolution of the ulcers and no note of recurrence up to three months from completion of the treatment regimen.
