RESUMEN
Skin disease is common among migrant Latino farmworkers. These workers rarely use formal health care services but commonly engage in self-treatment of their skin disease. We present a patient with dermatitis who self-treated with bleach. This patient illustrates a common practice that exacerbates skin disease and sheds light on social and cultural factors of which health care providers serving this community should be aware.
