Localized Scleroderma (Morphea), Christina Lam, MD, Michael York, MD

morphia I’ve had it since I was a child and it looks like a burn mark people say or big bruise and it grows and shrinks but it never goes away and I’ve noticed when it grows my back in that area gets so itchy and when it shrinks it feels like the tissues and the muscles tighten up and it feels like it’s squeezing my ribs.

So much that we know about this disease and still no cure. 🤔

Someone tell the rheumatologists at u of m that it's possible to have linear scleroderma without alopecia because they seem to have missed the memo.. in the same breath he told me that "everyone's symptoms are different" he also said that my atrophy ISN'T morphea because I haven't lost all my hair... Didn't offer a differential diagnosis.. didn't deny the presence of atrophy.. just insists my lesions must not be morphea because I don't have alopecia with all of them. 🤦

Hello Albenita, this video goes into linear scleroderma at about the 17 minute mark. I have also added a link to another great video: th-cam.com/video/EKNLIQIN1F0/w-d-xo.html
