  Pemphigus Vulgaris is a rare autoimmune disorder that causes painful blisters on the skin, mouth, throat, nose, and genitals. It usually affects men and women in their forties and fifties. Pemphigus Vulgaris develops when the body's own immune system mistakenly attacks proteins in the skin's layer. Pemphigus Vulgaris treatment includes painful blisters and a pinching sensation on the skin. Blisters typically form in the mouth first, then rupture to form painful sores. This continues until the entire mouth lining is affected, causing difficulty swallowing. Blisters form on the skin as well and rupture, causing painful wounds. When a blister ruptures, it becomes infected; the damaged skin oozes fluid and becomes susceptible to infections. Histopathology, direct immunofluorescence, and indirect immunofluorescence are all used to diagnose pemphigus Vulgaris. There is no cure for pemphigus Vulgaris; only symptomatic relief is available.

The disorder is uncommon and affects the mouth, nose, throat, lungs, eyes, and genitals.

The formation of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against self-desmosomal attachment proteins, which are found on epidermal keratinocytes, causes rankle development. Its examination includes biopsy (tissue examination), blood tests for pemphigus-specific antibodies, and endoscopy. Immunosuppressive medications and corticosteroids are used in the treatment.
