Id reactions result from a variety of stimuli including infectious entities and inflammatory skin conditions. Dermatological manifestations are variable and depend on the etiology of the eruption. Id reactions associated with stasis dermatitis are usually symmetrical and involve the forearms, thighs, legs, trunk, face, hands, neck and feet in descending order of frequency.
