Erythema nodosum (EN), the most common form of panniculitis, is a reactive inflammation of the subcutaneous fat clinically presented with a sudden onset of painful, erythematous, nodular, subcutaneous lesions, typically localized to the pretibial area. EN is commonly caused by numerous infections (especially beta‐haemolytic streptococcal infections), autoimmune diseases (sarcoidosis), inflammatory bowel conditions and drugs. EN induced by Covid‐19 vaccines is rarely reported. We describe an original clinical observation of a 75‐year‐old woman who presented with EN after receiving the second dose of BNT162b2, an mRNA vaccine.
