Rudolph Sign in Nasal Vestibular Furunculosis

A 7-year-old girl with a history of atopic dermatitis presented with complaints of pain, swelling and reddish discolouration of her nose for past 4 days. Her mother indicated frequent recurrence of similar symptoms over previous 2 years, predominantly during the winter months. The child had a habit of “nose picking”. She denied any fever, chills, malaise, or suggestive systemic symptom. Cutaneous examination revealed a well demarcated unilateral tender, erythematous, and edematous plaque over the tip, right-sided ala and vestibule of nose.
