Treatment
Acrodermatitis by itself is not treated. Associated conditions, such as hepatitis B and Epstein-Barr virus infection, should be managed appropriately.

Expectations (prognosis)
Acrodermatitis is considered a self-limiting disease that disappears without complication. However, the associated conditions must be watched carefully.
Complications
Complications occur as a result of associated conditions, rather than as a result of acrodermatitis.
