Dear Editor
Pemphigus is often difficult to manage disease, which involves, apart from the pharmacological management, maintaining the environmental temperature and humidity within a narrow range as the loss of skin easily result in thermal and hydration imbalance.1 While this might be easy to do this in a well-equipped hospital with airconditioning, but turns out to be difficult in a low resource set-up.
