Abstract
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease affecting elderly patients. Atypical non-bullous presentations such as prurigo-like lesions may delay diagnosis. We report a 72-year-old patient with Parkinson’s disease presenting with severe pruritus for 4 months, resistant to antihistamines. Direct immunofluorescence confirmed BP. The patient improved with topical clobetasol propionate (30 g/day).
