Leprosy (Hansen’s Disease): Early Diagnosis Matters Leprosy, also known as Hansen’s disease, is a chronic infectious disease that primarily affects the skin and peripheral nerves. It can sometimes mimic other common skin conditions, making early and accurate diagnosis important. Common signs may include persistent skin patches or plaques, loss of sensation, numbness, tingling, weakness, or thickened peripheral nerves. Some patients may have very few symptoms initially. Diagnosis is based on careful dermatological examination and, when required, investigations such as skin biopsy and slit-skin smear. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help prevent nerve damage and disability. If you have persistent skin lesions or areas of reduced sensation, consult a qualified MD dermatologist for proper evaluation rather than self-treating. #Leprosy #HansenDisease #LeprosyTreatment #LeprosyAwareness #HansenDiseaseAwareness #LepromatousLeprosy #LeprosyDiagnosis #SkinBiopsy #Dermatologist #Dermatology #SkinDisease #SkinInfection #NerveDamage #SkinClinic #Dermatosurgery #VitiligoAndLeprosy #MalviyaNagar #SouthDelhi #DelhiDermatologist #SkinfollicsClinic 1 day ago
