Knuckle pads (KPs) are benign hyperkeratotic fibrous thickening skin disorder characterized by nodules or plaques located on the extensor surface of the joints. However, there are no specific treatments for KPs so far. Here, we reported a case of KPs successfully treated with 2% crisaborole ointment combined with triamcinolone acetonide and neomycin plaster. This combined therapy might be a new therapeutic option for KPs.
