Lichen myxedema: what is it and how to treat it?

Lichen myxedema is a rare and potentially dangerous condition that is characterized by excessive formation of connective tissue on the skin and mucous membranes. The disease is manifested by changes in skin color and texture, swelling, impaired sensitivity and respiratory function. In this article we will look at the causes of the development of lichen myxedoma, symptoms and treatment of the disease.

What is Lichen myxodematosis? Lichen myxemedotoma is a rare disease diagnosed in a small group of patients and manifested by the formation of connective tissue in various parts of the body.

Diagnostic results indicate damage in the area of ​​nervous tissue in lichen myxemotomus, which is caused by exposure to an infectious or bacterial infection in the interstitial environment between the skin and the underlying layer.
