Summary
1 - DIAGNOSIS
Exercise-induced purpura (EIP or exercise-induced vasculitis) is a purely cutaneous vasculitis affecting the ankles and legs after unusually strenuous exercise in warm weather, and resolving spontaneously in a few days. Recurrence is common during subsequent periods of similar exercise. While effort-induced purpura is not rare, it is a poorly known condition and has only recently been described [1, 2, 3, 4].
