What Is Lepromatous Leprosy?

Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Leprosy. The main lesions are on the skin and peripheral nerves. The clinical manifestations are numb skin damage, enlarged nerves, and severe disability. The disease is widespread in the world, but in China, it is prevalent in Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Qinghai provinces. Due to active prevention and control after the founding of the PRC, the disease has been effectively controlled and the incidence has decreased significantly.
