  1. tuberculoid leprosy

    Tuberculoid leprosy is a form of leprosy characterized by a few well-defined and relatively non-tender skin plaques or lesions that are lighter than the patient's normal skin tone. This form of leprosy is less severe because the immune system is able to limit the growth of the bacteria that cause the illness, Mycobacterium leprae. Tuberculoid leprosy typically affects the skin and peripheral nerves, leading to potential nerve damage and muscle weakness.
