How does leporacy effect the hands and feet?
Leprosy, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae, primarily affects the skin, nerves, and mucous membranes, leading to a range of symptoms in the hands and feet. It can cause loss of sensation due to nerve damage, which increases the risk of injuries and infections. Additionally, the disease may result in deformities, such as clawed fingers or toes, and skin lesions that can further impair function. Over time, untreated leprosy can lead to significant disability in extremities.
What other disease is leprosy related to?
Leprosy is a slowly progressing bacterial infection that affects the skin, peripheral nerves in the hands and feet, and mucous membranes of the nose, throat, and eyes. It is not easily communicable and by itself has few noticeable effects, but it destroys nerves, which can lead to a loss of sensation in affected areas. This loss of sensation means that small cuts can go unnoticed and become extensively infected - the leper may not notice the cut until the infection is severe enough to be visually obvious. This can result in the loss of fingers or toes, or in other visible deformities from opportunistic infections.
