Case below brought to our attention. Patient urgently seeking consultation by a dermatologist willing to investigate. Needed for liability and medical documentation (publishing). "Dear Dr. Cole, I am a resident of ... Ontario Canada. I am seeking your help with a serious skin condition that I have had since August, 2015 after cutting down burdock. I worked as a gardener on a ten acre property where I cut down and disposed of burdock over a four day period. Since that time , I have had sores over most of my body. Each sore, when examined under 10x magnification, have black pappus hairs. I have not been able to get any help from doctors as they have never heard of burdock or skin problems associated with working around this plant. I am writing to you because I need any help or suggestions for treatment. I have circular scars on my back, legs, arm, hands, fingers, buttock, face and neck. New sores continue to erupt weekly...."
