Ref.: (LML) Effectiveness of sensory re-education in leprosy
From: Karthikeyan G, Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, India
Dear LML readers,
Last week (March 9), Mr. Karthikeyan, an Occupational therapist working in India with The Leprosy Mission Trust India, sent you a LML message with a request to share experience in the effectiveness of sensory re-education in leprosy.
He wrote: “I have seen the patients with recovered sensation (touch) after nerve damage due to leprosy, but their perception (cortical representation) of objects in hand seems to be disturbed. I am interested in sensory re-education after nerve damage in leprosy. I have found one case report from Nigeria, where they reported improvement after intervention. May I ask the readers to share their experience in the effectiveness of sensory re-education in leprosy?

Anyone willing to give their advice?
Kind regards,
