    Extractions: Scleroderma Scleroderma means hard skin, although it affects the joints, blood vessels and organs. Also known as systemic sclerosis, scleroderma always affects the skin, causing hard, oval-shaped patches or streaks of thickened skin on the arms, legs and forehead. These patches can move inward to the bones and muscles. Symptoms Besides thickening and hardening of the skin, scleroderma can cause skin to lose elasticity and become shiny as it stretches across bones. Other symptoms include: Numbness, pain or color changes in fingers, toes, cheeks, nose and ears, often brought on by cold or emotional distress Sores over joints, such as elbows and knuckles Puffy hands and feet, particularly in the morning Causes and Risk Factors About 150,000 Americans have scleroderma. It is a rare disease that affects women five times more often than men, and it affects adults more than children. It can run in families, but it more often occurs without any known family tendency. It is not considered contagious or cancerous. Scleroderma results from the production of too much collagen, a fibrous protein in connective tissues. The body's immune system appears to attack the body, causing inflammation and overproduction of collagen. There are different types of scleroderma, including:

    Extractions: Scleroderma Early recognition of scleroderma is essential because this will allow for early treatment. It is important to recognize that there is no cure for scleroderma. In addition, because it is a chronic disease, people often require medical therapy for many years to keep scleroderma under control. Goals of therapy vary for each person because the various organs involved in a given person with scleroderma guide treatment. There are a number of effective organ-specific treatments available for people with scleroderma. Combinations of anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressing medicines are often needed. These manage the underlying problems with the immune system. Various other medications are often needed to control the skin and internal organ problems associated with this disease. In particular, chemotherapy may be required to control underlying lung problems.

    Extractions: Previous Next ROSACEA AND RELATED CONDITIONS Rosacea Etiology and pathogenesis Rosacea is characterized by papules and pustules on the cheeks and nose of an adult. Comedones are absent. Fair-skinned patients (particularly Celts) are prone to this disease. Black-skinned patients are rarely affected. Clinical Clinically, one sees inflammatory papules and pustules of the central face, especially the nose ( Fig.10.23 ). A Maltese cross distribution has been described in which the nose, each cheek, central forehead, and point of the chin are affected. The areas immediately around the mouth and the eyelids are characteristically spared, although, paradoxically, the eyelids may be affected in isolation in a variant of rosacea. Fig. 10.24 Fig.10.25 ). Enlargement of the nose (rhinophyma; Fig.10.26 ) occurs in the minority, and patients should be reassured that this is uncommon; it is more common in men, and the degree of rosacea present may be minimal. Tremendous edema may develop in rosacea ( Fig.10.27
