Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of rare inherited skin disorders that
causes the skin to become very fragile. Any trauma or friction to the skin can
cause painful blisters. The symptoms of epidermolysis bullosa include skin that
blisters easily, blisters on hands and soles of the feet, thickened skin that may
be scarred or change color over time, and thickening of the skin and nails.
There are three types of epidermolysis bullosa which includes:
·
Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) – the most common type, which can
range from mild, with a low risk of serious complications to severe
·
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) – which can range from mild to
severe
·
Junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) – a rare form of epidermolysis
bullosa that ranges from moderate to severe
The type reflects where on the body the blistering takes place and which
layer of skin is affected.
