Girish, MBBS, MD, DDV, DNB AJ Institute of Medical Science Description: Mid-borderline hansen’s disease - inverted saucer-like annular plaques that are minimally anesthetic 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. Destruction of the nerve endings causes the the affected areas to lose sensation. Occasionally, because of the loss of feeling, the fingers and toes become mutilated and fall off, causing the deformities that are typically associated with the disease.
