Common questions about Leprosy
Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which primarily affects the skin, nerves, and mucous membranes.
Leprosy is treated with a multi-drug therapy (MDT) that includes antibiotics to eradicate the bacteria and prevent further damage.
Leprosy is contagious, but it spreads very slowly and requires prolonged close contact with an untreated infected person.
