(gcide) | Leprosy \Lep"ro*sy\ (l[e^]p"r[-o]*s[y^]), n. [See Leprous.]
(Med.)
A cutaneous disease which first appears as blebs or as
reddish, shining, slightly prominent spots, with spreading
edges. These are often followed by an eruption of dark or
yellowish prominent nodules, frequently producing great
deformity. In one variety of the disease, an[ae]sthesia of
the skin is a prominent symptom. In addition there may be
wasting of the muscles, falling out of the hair and nails,
and distortion of the hands and feet with destruction of the
bones and joints. It is incurable, and is probably
contagious.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The disease now called leprosy, also designated as
Lepra or Lepra Arabum, and Elephantiasis Gr[ae]corum,
is not the same as the leprosy of the ancients. The
latter was, indeed, a generic name for many varieties
of skin disease (including our modern leprosy,
psoriasis, etc.), some of which, among the Hebrews,
rendered a person ceremonially unclean. A variety of
leprosy of the Hebrews (probably identical with modern
leprosy) was characterized by the presence of smooth,
shining, depressed white patches or scales, the hair on
which participated in the whiteness, while the skin and
adjacent flesh became insensible. It was an incurable
disease.
