Pemphigus is a class of rare autoimmune diseases that causes incredibly painful blistering of the skin and significantly impacts patients' day‐to‐day lives and well‐being. Many strides have been made in treating pemphigus; however, no comprehensive literature exists on how to treat the pain that accompanies the disease.
