Etymology ?

[edit]

I would like to suggest a new section for this article: Etymology.

What is the origin of this condition's name?
Is there any connection between erythrasma and erythromycin? (Was the medicine created to treat this specific disease?)
What exactly does the prefix "erythr-" represent?

Yes it is trivia, but I think it might be appropriate scientific trivia for an encyclopedia. 172.88.134.126 (talk) 09:22, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
