Suggestion: A section on CFL lighting fixtures

CFL's contain mercury and a section on what to watch for and how to safely dispose of both intact and broken CFLs would be valuable. 71.225.73.57 (talk) 04:33, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Photos?

A photo or two of a patient with this condition would be nice...

Pink disease, not Pink's disease

It is named after the characteristic color of the rash. Citations below are from the Oxford English Dictionary.

pink disease n. Med. a disease of children caused by mercury poisoning, characterized by pinkness of parts of the body, restlessness, and photophobia.

1921 Med. Jrnl. Austral. 19 Feb. 146/1 When the rash is marked it is common to find the glands in the axillæ and groins enlarged. It is this pink rash, that leads to the name ‘pink disease’.
1974 R. Passmore & J. S. Robson Compan. Med. Stud. III. xvii. 28/1 Pink disease earns its name from the colour of the hands and feet and not from an imaginary Dr Pink to whom many students credit its discovery.
