Today we're going to talk about Eczema Herpeticum -- which we've never done a deep dive on with a dermatologist before. Today's guest is not only a favorite guest of the show, but he's seen it all in his practice and will delve into why we need to be very careful trying to fight off viral infections on our own with a compromised skin barrier.

My guest today is Dr. Peter Lio, a Clinical Assistant Professor of Dermatology & Pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. He received his medical degree from Harvard Medical School, completed his internship in Pediatrics at Boston Children’s Hospital, and his Dermatology training at Harvard where he served as Chief Resident in Dermatology. While at Harvard, he received formal training in acupuncture. Dr. Lio has written a textbook on Integrative Dermatology and has published over 100 papers.

Quotes

"If it gets near your eye, it can actually start to involve the eye, which is dangerous. That can be really an eye emergency. You can permanently damage your cornea and have trouble. " [03:33]

"Any kind of a barrier damage could lead to the herpes virus doing this. So it could be from poison ivy, it could be in some of the genetic conditions like derriere disease, it could be from people with blistering disorders, it could even be from just irritation." [14:18]
