Et andet symptom af særlig ulykkelig karakter, som også kun optræder hos patienter med lav eller ingen modstandskraft, er ødelæggelse af næsens bærende strukturer, med sammenfald til følge. Dette giver en stor kosmetisk gene, også fordi alle genkender det som et spedalskhedstegn, så symptomet kan få stor betydning for patientens sociale forhold Slide Series, Bangladesh 1990: "Leprosy - the old scourge" - No. 04: A leper man with collapse

Description
Slide Series, Bangladesh 1990: "Leprosy - the old scourge" - No. 04: A leper man with collapse of the nose. Another symptom of particularly unhappy character, which only occurs in patients with a low or no resistance, is destruction of the nose-bearing structures, leading to collapse. This gives a great cosmetic nuisance, also because everybody recognizes it as a sign of leprosy, resulting in great impact on social aspect of the patient as well.
