  1. lepromatous leprosy

    Lepromatous leprosy is a severe form of leprosy, a chronic and infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae. It is characterized by extensive skin lesions, nodules, plaques, nasal congestion, and loss of sensation, as well as potential involvement of other organs. The immune response in lepromatous leprosy is typically poor, allowing the bacteria to multiply freely and progressively impair body functions. The disease can also lead to complications such as muscle weakness, nerve damage, and blindness if not treated appropriately.
