We present a rare case of blistering over the abdomen caused by lipodermatosclerosis, a chronic fibrosing panniculitis secondary to venous hypertension (1). It is commonly seen on the lower legs in older patients. Lipodermatosclerosis is characterised by erythema and pain in the acute phase, often mimicking cellulitis. This progresses to 'woody' indurated plaques and pigmentation in the chronic phase.
