 ==Prognosis==
-If the involvement of the vasculitis is limited to the skin, the disorder should resolve within months and carries a good prognosis. Recurrences may appear at variable intervals.  in contrast if the vascultis involves internal organs such as the kidney, lungs or brain, then the prognosis is poorer and the condition can be life-threatening.
