Skin inflammation, light micrograph
Skin inflammation. Light micrograph of a section through skin showing inflamed capillaries (lower left and upper right) caused by capillaritis, also known as pigmented purpurea. The capillary walls become inflamed and blood cells leak out into the surrounding tissues. This leads to reddish brown patches on the surface of the skin. Capillaritis may be caused by an allergic reaction to medication, food additives or a viral infection. There is no known cure except avoidance of possible allergens

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of skin inflammation at a microscopic level. The light micrograph reveals a section through the skin, highlighting inflamed capillaries in the lower left and upper right corners. These capillaries are affected by capillaritis, also known as pigmented purpurea. In this condition, the walls of the tiny blood vessels become inflamed, causing blood cells to leak out into the surrounding tissues. As a result, reddish-brown patches appear on the surface of the skin. Capillaritis can be triggered by various factors such as an allergic reaction to medication or food additives, as well as viral infections. Unfortunately, there is currently no known cure for capillaritis except for avoiding potential allergens that may trigger it. This medical image provides valuable insight into histopathology and cytology related to this disorder. The Science Photo Library has expertly captured this visually striking representation of skin inflammation using advanced microscopy techniques. It serves not only as a scientific resource but also highlights the importance of understanding and managing conditions like capillaritis within healthcare settings.
