Portrait of a child with Buruli ulcer by @claire_carswell
This is caused by an infection with mycobacterium ulcerans.
Buruli ulcer often starts as a painless swelling (nodule), a large painless area of induration (plaque) or a diffuse painless swelling of the legs, arms or face (oedema). The disease may progress with no pain and fever. Without treatment or sometimes during antibiotics treatment, the nodule, plaque or oedema will ulcerate within 4 weeks. Bone is occasionally affected, causing deformities.
This neglected tropical disease has been reported in 33 countries but transmission (and prevention) is poorly understood, and it is a very under-researched disease

Illustration of Hansen’s disease, better known as #leprosy by @claire_carswell
It is caused by a long-term infection with mycobacterium leprae.
Hansen’s disease causes nerve damage, meaning that people experience repeated injury and infection to their extremities, leading to reabsorption - marked by shortening or loss - of their fingers and toes.
Hansen’s disease has a horrible history of stigmatisation, despite not being a very contagious disease, and is easily treated today. Unsurprisingly it is a #neglectedtropicaldisease - and predominantly impacts people in India, Brazil and Indonesia.
