Zumbusch-Blaich Lichten is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by red or white patches on the skin that may or may not be painful. The disease can occur in men and women of any age, but is most common among people over 50 years of age.
The origin of the term "Tsumbusha" is unknown: it may be related to the name of the dermatologist who discovered the disease in 1953. The term "Lichen White" was coined later when it became clear that the disease shared some features with another disease also called lichen.
Symptoms of Tsumbushi White Lichen may vary depending on the severity of the disease. The most common symptoms are:
- Red, white or pink spots on the skin - Pain when touching the skin - Increased sensitivity of the skin - Increased skin temperature in the affected areas
In mild cases of Tsumbushu White, Lichen-like psoriasis appears as small red spots that may bleed a little. In severe cases of the disease, the spots grow and merge with each other, forming large areas of damage.
The causes of Tsumbushe White Lichen are not clear, but there are several risk factors that contribute to the development of this disease:
* Heredity; * Concomitant diseases of the respiratory and digestive organs; * Chronic viral diseases; * Exposure to sunlight and cold on the skin;
