do u have leprosy???

Answer 1

Yes if....
the bacteria that cause leprosy multiply very slowly, symptoms usually do not begin until at least 1 year after a person has been infected; on average, symptoms appear 5 to 7 years after infection. Once symptoms do begin, they progress slowly.

Leprosy mainly affects the skin and peripheral nerves. The skin develops characteristic rashes and bumps. Infection of the nerves makes the skin numb or the muscles weak in areas controlled by those nerves.

Leprosy is categorized as tuberculoid, lepromatous, or borderline according to the type and number of skin spots. The type of leprosy dictates the long-term prognosis, likely complications, and how long antibiotic treatment is needed.

In tuberculoid leprosy, a rash appears, consisting of one or a few flat, whitish areas. Areas affected by this rash are numb because the bacteria damage the underlying nerves.

In lepromatous leprosy, many small bumps or larger raised rashes of variable size and shape appear on the skin. There are more areas of numbness than in tuberculoid leprosy, and certain muscle groups may be weak.

Borderline leprosy shares features of both tuberculoid and lepromatous leprosy. If not treated, borderline leprosy may improve to resemble the tuberculoid form or worsen to become more like the lepromatous form.

The most severe symptoms of leprosy result from infection of the peripheral nerves, which causes a deterioration of a person's sense of touch and a corresponding inability to feel pain and temperature. People with peripheral nerve damage may unknowingly burn, cut, or otherwise harm themselves. Repeated damage may eventually lead to loss of fingers and toes. Also, damage to peripheral nerves may cause muscle weakness, at times resulting in clawing of the fingers and a "drop foot" deformity. Skin infection can lead to areas of swelling and lumps, which can be particularly disfiguring on the face.

People with leprosy also may develop sores on the soles of the feet. Damage to the nasal passages can result in a chronically stuffy nose and, if untreated, complete erosion of the nose. Eye damage may lead to blindness. Men with lepromatous leprosy may experience erectile dysfunction (impotence) and become infertile, because the infection can reduce the amount of testosteroneSome Trade Names

and sperm produced by the testes.

During the course of untreated or even treated leprosy, the body's immune response may produce inflammatory reactions. These reactions can produce fever and inflammation of the skin, peripheral nerves, and less commonly the lymph nodes, joints, testes, kidneys, liver, and eyes.
