Eczema is widely considered to be specific type of Kushtha known as Vicharchika, with complex pathology, varying presentations, and various treatment modules within the context of Ayurveda. The Kushtha is generally used as a universal term for all kinds of skin disorders, which is further classified in two divisions i.e. Mahakushta and Kshudrakushta and Vicharchika is mentioned under Kshudrakushta. Vicharchika is considered as Rakta Pradoshaja Vikaras. Recurrences and chronic course is a distinct feature for this disease. Eczema is primarily managed with top-ical steroids, antiseptic, immune-suppressors drugs to inhibit immune and inflammatory response.

The staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome usually occurs in children less than 5 years old, whereas drug-induced toxic epidermal necrolysis is considered a disease of adults.1 Except for the age differential, the two often cannot be distinguished clinically. Therefore, rapid and definitive biopsy diagnosis is essential in the management of patients with acute exfoliative skin disorders. We wish to report the case of a young child with proven toxic epidermal necrolysis and review the manifestations of this disease, as well as the staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome. CASE REPORT A 4-year-old white girl was admitted to Strong Memorial Hospital because of a generalized bullous eruption.
