Please start a new thread.

The person has a condition known as cutaneous leishmaniasis (also know as: Oriental sore, Delhi ulcer, Baghdad boil). In cutaneous leishmaniasis, the organism (L. tropica) multiplies locally, producing of a papule, 1-2 weeks (or as long as 1-2 months) after the bite. The papule gradually grows to form a relatively painless ulcer. The center of the ulcer encrusts while satellite papules develop at the periphery. The ulcer heals in 2-10 months, even if untreated but leaves a disfiguring scar. The disease may disseminate in the case of depressed immune function.



Hope this helps. Slight Smile
