Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is a chronic skin condition of sores with inflammation and scarring favoring the face ears and scalp and at times on other body areas. These lesions develop as a red inflamed patch with a scaling and crusty appearance. The center areas may appear lighter in color with a rim darker than the normal skin. Discoid lupus erythematosus can be divided into localized generalized and childhood discoid lupus erythematosus.
